Biomarker Reference · Dysbiosis OA
Malabsorption & Dysbiosis Organic Acid Markers (Dysbiosis OA) is a clinical biomarker used in metabolic-diabetes assessment. These organic acids derive in part from bacterial and yeast metabolism in the gut, with compounds absorbed and excreted in urine. It is measured in 1 laboratory test on BiomarkersLabs.com.
These organic acids derive in part from bacterial and yeast metabolism in the gut, with compounds absorbed and excreted in urine. Patterns are interpreted as indirect reflections of microbial activity and carbohydrate malabsorption rather than direct microbial counts.
Elevations in this group are interpreted in functional practice as suggestive of bacterial or yeast dysbiosis or malabsorption, prompting consideration of gut-directed assessment. The markers are indirect and non-specific, and interpretation is functional-medicine-oriented rather than diagnostic. # REVIEWER FLAG: Clinical validity of urinary dysbiosis markers is contested — reviewer to confirm positioning.
