- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The differential diagnosis of hereditary porphyria (especially, VP, HCP, EPP) by detecting the intrinsic fluorescence spectra of porphyrin intermediate metabolites (Uro III, Copro - III, Pp - IX) in urin/stool samples using LCTF
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method 1)Correlation between intrinsic fluorescence spectrum of porphyrin intermediate metabolite and results of HPLC analysis, genetic test(previously obtained). 2)Discrimination of difference in detectability by various clinical samples (urine/stool) 3)Correlation between intrinsic fluorescence spectrum of porphyrin intermediate metabolite and clinical data (gender, age, blood biochemistry data)
