Folate reference interval estimation in the Dutch general population
Background: Folate functions as an enzyme co-factor within the one-carbon metabolic pathway, providing key metabolites required for DNA synthesis and methylation. Hence, insufficient intake of folate can negatively affect health. As correct interpretation of folate status is dependent on a well-established reference interval, we set out to perform a new estimation following the restandardization of the Roche folate assay against the international folate standard. Materials and methods: The folate reference interval was estimated using samples obtained from the Dutch population-based Lifelines... Mehr ...
