UCSD Biochemical Genetics and Metabolomics Laboratory A Program in the Division of Genetics, Department of Pediatrics, University of California San Diego

There are two synergistic divisions of the present-day laboratory, arising from two traditions. 

• The William L. Nyhan Biochemical Genetics Laboratory conducts assays and research in inborn errors of metabolism in general.

• The Jerry A. Schneider Cystine Determination Laboratory conducts intracellular cystine assays and research endeavors focusing on cystinosis.
       > Information about cystinosis and specifics about preparation of samples for intracellular cystine assay are included on the webpages of CystinosisCentral.org
  

  
  

• We also operate a Veterinary Division for diagnotics and for animal research.
