&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #33cccc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Overview&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #808080;&quot;&gt;This test serves as a biomarker for peroxisomal biogenesis disorders like Zellweger spectrum disorder, as well as individual enzyme defects in bile acid synthesis such as D-bifunctional protein deficiency and alpha methyl-CoA racemase deficiency. It&#39;s particularly useful in monitoring patients undergoing bile acid therapy, such as cholic acid, for liver diseases stemming from these disorders.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
