What this test is

Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. This test analyzes the amounts of various amino acids present in a urine sample. It can provide information about how your body is processing these essential compounds.

What it measures

  • Alanine — reflects protein and carbohydrate metabolism
  • Arginine — involved in the urea cycle and immune function
  • Glycine — a simple amino acid with various metabolic roles
  • Leucine — an essential amino acid important for muscle metabolism
  • Lysine — an essential amino acid involved in protein synthesis and calcium absorption
  • Phenylalanine — an essential amino acid that is a precursor to neurotransmitters
  • Tryptophan — an essential amino acid that is a precursor to serotonin
  • Valine — an essential amino acid important for muscle growth and repair

What the test involves

This test requires a urine sample. You will typically be asked to provide a clean-catch midstream urine specimen.

Why it is often ordered

Clinicians may order this test to evaluate for certain inherited metabolic disorders affecting amino acid processing. It can also be used to monitor individuals with known conditions related to amino acid metabolism.
