Organix® Neuro Urine Test

Laboratory chemical urine analysis of various substances to determine disorders of various metabolic pathways

Determination of vanillin mandelic acid, homovanillic acid, 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid, tryptophan, xanthurenic acid, L-kynurenine, kynurenic acid, quinolinic acid and the calculated L-kynurenine/tryptophan ratio and the kynurenic acid/L-kynurenine ratio.

Tryptophan is an essential amino acid that is metabolised under physiological conditions to the neurohormones serotonin and melatonin. In the gastrointestinal tract, serotonin influences motility, secretion and the sensation of pain. Low melatonin levels are associated with sleep disorders. Tryptophan is physiologically broken down by hepatic tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase (TDO) via the oxidative kynurenine metabolic pathway. If there are disturbances in this metabolic process (usually due to a micronutrient deficiency), this can manifest itself in different ways.

The metabolites analysed in this profile allow conclusions to be drawn about neurotransmitters, which in turn are involved in numerous pathological and physiological processes in the body. They can have neuroprotective, neurotoxic, proinflammatory, anti-inflammatory, oxidising, antioxidant and/or immunomodifying effects.

By determining the metabolites, or ratios to each other, conclusions can be drawn about possible causes. These include, for example, vitamin B6/vitamin B3 deficiency, micronutrient deficiency, reduced amino acid intake, medication intake or impaired fructose absorption in the intestine. The consequences can be depressive moods, digestive disorders, sleep disorders, anxiety and fatigue.

The urine analysis as part of the Organix® Neuro Test therefore makes it possible to recognise a possible link between somatic causes and psychological effects.

The test kit includes:

• 1 instruction for sample collection
• 1 set of instructions for requesting results
• 1 sample receipt1 guarantee certificate
• 1 urine tube with stabiliser (hydrochloric acid) in shipping container with hazardous goods sticker (Caution: corrosive!)
• 1 urine cup
• 1 dispatch bag

How does the ordering process work?

After your order, the desired test package will be sent to you with detailed instructions. You put your sample in a sample container, send it in a prepared envelope to Medivere's partner laboratory GANZIMMUN Diagnostics GmbH and receive a report with the evaluation of your profile after 5-7 days.

Only for Germany and Austria

We would like to point out that these tests and the shipping procedures are optimised and pre-paid for Germany and Austria. Orders from further afield are problematic because the perishable biological samples may only be in transit for a limited time (maximum 4 days). Customers from Switzerland or other EU countries can of course try it at their own risk, but if the test fails, we decline any responsibility or reimbursement. You can find more information on this from the manufacturer!

Only for Germany and Austria

• We would like to point out that these tests and the shipping processes are optimized for Germany and Austria and are prepaid.
• Samples must be delivered to the German laboratory within 4 days. This cannot be guaranteed for samples shipped from other countries!
• Orders from countries other than Germany and Austria are therefore at your own risk. In this case, we only accept the payment method "Prepayment (directly to us)", as customers cannot then cancel the purchase, e.g., because the sample arrived at the laboratory unusable through their own fault. Purchases made with any other payment methods that customers could unlawfully reverse will be immediately canceled and refunded.
