UMD: Analyzers used to detect and quantify primary and secondary amino acids in physiologic fluids (e.g., plasma, urine). Amino acid analyzers generally use ion-exchange or reversed-phase high-pressure liquid chromatography techniques. Most dedicated laboratory amino acid analyzers are automated. These analyzers are typically used in the clinical laboratory to monitor treatment of inborn metabolism errors and other genetically produced disorders in protein metabolism (e.g., phenylketonuria).,CSP: biomedical equipment or process used to determine the quantities of each individual amino acid in a protein.
