Tandem mass spectrometry: A new method for acylcarnitine profiling with potential for neonatal screening for inborn errors of metabolism
Abstract
Conclusion: A method for analysis of acylcarnitines in blood at physiological concentrations has been developed. Preliminary results from umbilical cord blood and neonatal blood spotted onto Guthrie cards are encouraging. This method will detect up to at least eight inherited metabolic disorders which exhibit diagnostic acylcarnitine profiles, including medium‐chain acyl‐CoA dehydrogenase deficiency. The speed and simplicity of the method permit automation with existing technology, and could enable routine neonatal screening to be carried out in an efficient and cost‐effective manner.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
