Succinylacetone (abbreviated as SA) is a product of tyrosine catabolism, and an inhibitor of heme biosynthesis. Succinylacetone testing in dried neonatal blood spots, followed by quantitation of SA in blood or urine in high-risk neonates, has excellent sensitivity and specificity for the diagnosis of tyrosinemia type 1 [1].

Succinylacetone is a reactive diketone which reacts with the amino groups of peptides and proteins present in the blood. Therefore, extraction of the bound SA requires its conversion into a product suitable for its extraction and quantification. This is effected by means of hydrazine treatment which leads to a conversion of succinylacetone to this pyrazole derivative.

This pyrazole derivative is a deuterated derivative is used as an analytical standard in the measurement of succinylacetone (SA) in dried blood spot samples.
