Urinary mercapturic acids are direct end product metabolites of conjugated xenobiotics.
Combined assessment of the urinary levels of
the two analytes provides valuable information about exposure to xenobiotics and liver disease, and the capability of the liver to eliminate toxins. Collect sample at home and mail to the lab. Doctors order provided, you receive the results.
