Quantification of Differential Metabolites in Dried Blood Spots Using Second-Tier Testing for SCADD/IBDD Disorders Based on Large-Scale Newborn Screening in a Chinese Population
Background: Although newborn screening (NBS) for metabolic defects using the marker butyl carnitine (C4) combined with the C4-to-acetylcarnitine ratio is adequate, the incorporation of novel parameters may improve differential testing for these disorders without compromising sensitivity.Methods: Ana...

Additionally, second-tier testing by ultraperformance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) combined with the quantification of ethylmalonate (EMA) or isobutyryl-glycine (IBG) in dried blood spots (DBSs) was performed to reduce the false-positive rate.Results: We reviewed initial MS/MS data for DBSs from 469,730 neonates, and a second-tier test was performed using 237 samples that exceeded the C4 concentration cutoff value.
