		Organic acids, also called carboxylic acids, comprise key intermediary compounds of many biochemical pathways as well as exogenous compounds.
		The tricarboxylic acid, TCA cycle (also called the citric acid cycle or Krebs cycle) in the mitochondrion, for example, comprised of nine organic acids and eight enzymes, is the central metabolic pathway for all fuel molecules; dietary carbohydrates, proteins, and fats.
		In these patients, urinary organic acid profiling reveals greatly elevated excretion of organic acid intermediates due to a block in a metabolic pathway; a block which may arise from a defective or missing enzyme required in the pathway in question.
