Glutamate

Glutamine is hydrolyzed by glutaminase in the upper renal epithelial cells to remove ammonia, which is then combined with H+ to form an ammonium salt. In the body, ammonia can also synthesize glutamic acid with alpha ketoglutarate. Clinical detection of glutamate metabolism is conducive to disease diagnosis. Glutamate is one of the basic amino acids of nitrogen metabolism in living organisms and is of great significance in metabolism. L-glutamic acid is a major component of protein, and glutamate is ubiquitous in nature. A variety of foods and human body contain glutamate, which is one of the structural amino acids of proteins or peptides, and is also a free amino acid, L-form amino acids are more delicious. Basic Information Specialist classification: Digestive examination classification: biochemical examination Applicable gender: whether men and women apply fasting: fasting Analysis results: Below normal: No clinical significance. Normal value: Glutamate: 14-192μmol/L Above normal: Gout, pancreatic tumor, liver disease, glutamate poisoning. negative: Positive: Tips: Do not eat too greasy, high-protein foods the day before the blood draw, avoid heavy drinking. The alcohol content in the blood directly affects the test results. Normal value 14 to 192 μmol/L. Clinical significance Abnormal result Elevation: gout, pancreatic tumor, liver disease, glutamate poisoning. High results may be diseases: liver disease, gout precautions Before inspection: 1, do not eat too greasy, high-protein food the day before the blood, to avoid heavy drinking. The alcohol content in the blood directly affects the test results. 2. After 8 pm on the day before the medical examination, you should start fasting for 12 hours to avoid affecting the test results. 3, should relax when taking blood, to avoid the contraction of blood vessels caused by fear, increase the difficulty of blood collection. After inspection: 1. After blood is drawn, local compression is required at the pinhole for 3-5 minutes to stop bleeding. Note: Do not rub, so as not to cause subcutaneous hematoma. 2, the pressing time should be sufficient. There is a difference in clotting time for each person, and some people need a little longer to clotting. Therefore, when the surface of the skin appears to be bleeding, the compression is stopped immediately, and the blood may be infiltrated into the skin due to incomplete hemostasis. Therefore, the compression time is longer to completely stop bleeding. If there is a tendency to bleed, the compression time should be extended. 3, after the blood draw symptoms of fainting such as: dizziness, vertigo, fatigue, etc. should immediately lie down, drink a small amount of syrup, and then undergo a physical examination after the symptoms are relieved. 4. If there is localized congestion, use a warm towel after 24 hours to promote absorption. Inspection process Inspection method: draw blood. Not suitable for the crowd no. Adverse reactions and risks no.
