What is it indicated for?

The NeoBase Non-derivatized MSMS reagent kit is intended for the measurement and evaluation of amino acids, succinylacetone, free-carnitine, and acylcarnitine concentrations from newborn heel prick blood samples dried on filter paper.

Quantitative analysis of these analytes (Table 1) and their relationship with each other is intended to provide analyte concentration profiles that may aid in screening newborns for metabolic disorders.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
