Beta hydroxybutyrate/Acetoacetate [Molar ratio] in Blood --post meal

Active

Term Description

The hydroxybutyrate/acetoacetate ratio (ketone body ratio) is an expression of the mitochondrial oxido-reduction state that can provide a clue to diagnosis and metabolic status in congenital errors of the electron transport chain and pyruvate metabolism.

Part Descriptions

LP15436-6 Beta hydroxybutyrate
Increases in beta-hydroxybutyrate are due to excessive fatty acid oxidation. Elevated levels are seen in gluconeogenesis, PHD complex deficiency, respiratory chain defects, IVA, PA, MMA, multiple carboxylase deficiency, 3-methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase deficiency, glyceroluria, MSUD, GA I, MAD deficiency, Beta-ketothiolase deficiencies, 2-amino/2-ketoadipic acidemia,mitochondrial SCHAD,and fatty acids oxidation deficiency.
