Fig. 1. Comparison of marker metabolite levels in surveyed individuals of the comparison group and the patients with phenylketonuria (diagnostic marker — phenylalanine (Phe)), nonketotic hyperglycinemia (diagnostic marker — glycine (Gly)), and hyperammonemia (diagnostic marker — alanine (Ala))
Fig. 2. Comparison of marker metabolite levels in surveyed individuals of the comparison group and the patients with methylmalonic acidemia (diagnostic marker — propionylcarnitine (С3)) and homocystinuria (diagnostic marker — methionine (Met))
