?:definition
  • Clinical chemistry reagents intended to perform qualitative and/or quantitative analyses on a body fluid sample (e.g., whole blood, erythrocyte hemolysates) to determine vitamin B6 status by measuring the enzyme aspartate aminotransferase (AST); this enzyme is typically measured indirectly (i.e., measuring the pyridoxal-5-phosphate (PLP)-dependent activity of the enzyme aspartate aminotransferase). Decreased levels of vitamin B6 are associated with epileptic-like convulsions in young patients, dermatitis with cheilosis and glossitis, some types of chronic anemias, and encephalographic abnormalities.
