What is a NBS - Phenylketouria (PKU) Test in Bangalore ?
This test measures the level of phenylalanine in the blood. Phenylalanine is an amino acid from protein. The body normally converts it into another amino acid called tyrosine. When that process is blocked, phenylalanine can build up and harm the brain. The test helps detect phenylketonuria (PKU) and related metabolic problems early. Doctors use it as part of newborn screening. Early diagnosis lets caregivers start a special low-phenylalanine diet or treatments. That prevents serious learning and developmental problems. The test is also used to monitor treatment over time to keep levels safe.

Why Take a NBS - Phenylketouria (PKU) Test in Bangalore ?
NBS - Phenylketouria (PKU) is usually included in the routine newborn screening panel. Doctors order it when screening newborns or if a baby shows poor feeding, vomiting, unusual movements, or later developmental delays. It helps diagnose PKU and other causes of high phenylalanine that can harm the brain. Abnormal results usually come from inherited enzyme problems, though rare co‑factors can affect results. Family history of PKU makes testing especially important.
