Laboratory

Glutarylcarnitine (C5-DC)+3-Hydroxyhexanoylcarnitine (C6-OH)/Palmitoylcarnitine (C16) [Molar ratio] in DBS

Definition

This ratio may be computed only when using the non-derivatized tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) method reagents which measure the numerator, C5-DC+C6-OH, as a single isobaric analyte.
