    Product Description

    Suberylglycine is a glycine-conjugated form of the dicarboxylic acid suberic acid.1 Urinary levels of suberylglycine are increased in patients with medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (MCAD) deficiency, an inborn error of fatty acid metabolism characterized by hypoketotic hypoglycemia, medium-chain dicarboxylic aciduria, and intolerance to fasting.2,3,4

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
