GALT (Galactose-1-Phosphate Uridyltransferase) Assay (BC0068)

Description

GALT (Galactose-1-Phosphate Uridyltransferase) Assay is a biochemical enzyme test used to measure the activity of the GALT enzyme, essential for proper metabolism of galactose. Deficiency of this enzyme leads to galactosemia, a serious inherited metabolic disorder. Early detection through this assay helps prevent complications such as liver damage, developmental delays, and cataracts, especially in newborns and infants.
