benzoic acid and Argininosuccinic Aciduria

benzoic acid has been researched along with Argininosuccinic Aciduria in 1 studies

Benzoic Acid: A fungistatic compound that is widely used as a food preservative. It is conjugated to GLYCINE in the liver and excreted as hippuric acid.
benzoic acid : A compound comprising a benzene ring core carrying a carboxylic acid substituent.
aromatic carboxylic acid : Any carboxylic acid in which the carboxy group is directly bonded to an aromatic ring.

Argininosuccinic Aciduria: Rare autosomal recessive disorder of the urea cycle which leads to the accumulation of argininosuccinic acid in body fluids and severe HYPERAMMONEMIA. Clinical features of the neonatal onset of the disorder include poor feeding, vomiting, lethargy, seizures, tachypnea, coma, and death. Later onset results in milder set of clinical features including vomiting, failure to thrive, irritability, behavioral problems, or psychomotor retardation. Mutations in the ARGININOSUCCINATE LYASE gene cause the disorder.
