The clinical presentations are diverse. Homocystinuria Formicacid(FA)wasobtainedfromAjaxFinechem(Taren duetoCBSdeficiencyisassociatedwiththrombo-embolic Point, NSW, Australia). The isotopically labelled internal events, ectopia lentis, mental retardation, psychiatric standard (Homocystine (cid:2)d ) for Hcy was purchased from 8 disorders, and skeletal abnormalities (Refsum et al. 2004; CambridgeIsotopeLaboratories(Andover,MA,USA).The Yap and Naughten 1998).

The cbl defects also present with megaloblastic Samples anaemia, although measured serum vitamin B12 may be normal (Digest 2007; Schiff et al. 2011). In the cbl and The reference range of tHcy in normal newborn DBS was folate deficiencies, megaloblastic anaemia is a classical established using 99 current neonatal samples. A separate clinical feature, and there are different neuropsychiatric range for samples stored dry, sealed in plastic at room abnormalities which can appear in cbl deficiency due to temperature was obtained using 50 samples stored for demyelinationofperipheralnerves,thespinalcord,cranial 10 years and analysed by LC-MS/MS.
