The Glutamic Acid/Glutamine Ratio is used to identify specimen handling issues that cause spontaneous degradation of glutamine to glutamate, and can reveal the origin of difficulty maintaining systemic pH balance.

Glutamine is a nonessential amino acid and is the most abundant amino acid in the body. It is formed from glutamate using the enzyme glutamine synthetase. Approximately 80% of glutamine is found in the skeletal muscle, and this concentration is 30 times higher than the amount of glutamine found in human plasma. Although glucose is used as fuel for many tissues in the body, glutamine is the main fuel source for a large number of cells including lymphocytes, neutrophils, macrophages, and enterocytes.

Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the blood and is an important source of energy for many tissues in the body. It is derived from the amino acids histidine and glutamic acid.

Glutamine improves immune function, balances ammonia in the body, contributes to biosynthesis of proteins, amino acids, nucleic acids, glutathione, glutamate, and GABA.

Glutamine is used for energy, for synthesis of other essential building blocks, (protein, DNA, and RNA), and for removal of toxic substances.

Glutamine is a dispensable amino acid present in greater amounts than any other amino acid in the body fluid and cells.

- Glutamine is a conditionally essential amino acid (conditional mainly during times of disease or muscle wasting, such HIV/AIDS, cancer, or severe infections).

- In the intestinal lining, glutamine is the preferred source of fuel for intestinal epithelial cells and the main energy source for leukocytes (immune cells).

- Other important functions of glutamine include: transporting nitrogen between cells, acting as a precursor to glutathione production, acting as a precursor to nucleotides (for DNA and RNA synthesis), participating in gluconeogenesis in the absence of adequate carbohydrate intake, blunting the rise of blood glucose after consuming carbohydrate-rich meals, and regulating intestinal tight junctions.

Very good sources of glutamine include: whey, casein, milk, white rice, corn, and tofu.

Good sources of glutamine include: meat and eggs.
