Biotinidase neonatal screening
The Neonatal Biotinidase Screening Assay is an enzymatic assay for the quantitative determination of biotinidase activity in neonates using blood spot samples dried on Whatman S&S 903 filter collection paper. A non-invasive sampling method is used where specimens are collected by applying a few drops of blood freshly drawn from the infant’s heel with a lancet onto specially manufactured absorbent specimen collection (filter) paper. This method has many advantages: short collection time, low invasiveness, reduction of sample volume and ease of sample storage. It allows quantitative results to minimize the needs of a confirmatory test. Convenient transport and good stability of the samples and ready to use reagents are assured.
