Lysine is found in great quantities in muscle tissues, stimulates calcium absorption, carnitine synthesis, and growth and repair of muscle tissue.

Lysozyme is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of specific glycosidic bonds in mucopolysaccharides that constitute the cell wall of gram-positive bacteria. Lysozyme is an antibacterial defense present in the G.I. tract and is secreted by granulocytes, macrophages, Paneth cells, and Brunner's Glands as well as normal colonic crypt cells. The main source for fecal lysozyme is the intestinal granulocytes.

Serum lysozyme has emerged as a valuable biomarker for monitoring disease progression and regression, particularly in cases of confirmed sarcoidosis. According to revised FAB (French, American, British) criteria, serum or urine lysozyme levels that are three times the normal limit fulfill one of the key diagnostic criteria for distinguishing M4/M5 acute myeloid leukemia with monocytic differentiation from M2 acute myeloblastic leukemia with maturation.

m-Hydroxyphenylacetate (3-Hydroxyphenylacetic acid) and 4-hydroxyphenylacetic acid are produced by the bacterial fermentation of amino acids, much like Indoleacetic acid (IAA).

M-protein is an abnormal protein produced by myeloma cells that accumulates in and damages bone and bone marrow.

Bacterial species in the Actinobacteria phylum. Higher levels have been associated with Crohn’s disease and rheumatoid arthritis.

Penicillium Chrysogenum is a widely studied species of Penicillium that is most famous for being a source of penicillin and several other antibiotics.

The "M001-IgG Penicillium chrysogenum" marker is a blood test that measures the presence of immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies against Penicillium chrysogenum, a type of mold commonly found in indoor environments, including on decaying organic matter, building materials, and even certain foods like cheese. Penicillium chrysogenum is also known for being the source of penicillin, an antibiotic.

When an individual is exposed to Penicillium chrysogenum, their immune system may produce IgG antibodies, particularly if they have a sensitivity or intolerance to this mold. IgG antibodies are typically associated with delayed-type immune responses, meaning symptoms related to mold exposure may not appear immediately but could take hours or days to manifest. Elevated levels of the M001-IgG Penicillium chrysogenum marker suggest an immune response to this mold, which could potentially contribute to various symptoms.

Cladosporium, a well known trigger for asthmatic attacks, is one of the most widespread molds.

Cladosporium includes about 40 species naturally found in soil, on decaying plant material and as plant pathogens. 

In an indoor environment, Cladosporium spp. occur as secondary wall colonizers, appearing after the primary ones such as Penicillium species, Aspergillus versicolor and Wallemia sebi. Cladosporiumis very common on wet building material (e.g., gypsum board, acrylic painted walls, wood, wallpaper, carpet and mattress dust, HVAC fans, and wet insulation in mechanical cooling units).

The "M002-IgG Cladosporium herbarum" marker is a blood test that measures the presence of immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies against Cladosporium herbarum, a common mold species. This mold is typically found in both indoor and outdoor environments, especially in damp or decaying organic materials, such as soil, plants, and wood. Cladosporium herbarum is one of the most prevalent outdoor molds and is frequently found in areas with high humidity, as well as in poorly ventilated indoor spaces.

When an individual is exposed to Cladosporium herbarum, their immune system may produce IgG antibodies in response. Elevated levels of these antibodies suggest that the person may have a sensitivity or intolerance to this mold, which could lead to various health symptoms.

The fungus Aspergillus fumigatus causes allergic diseases, respiratory illnesses, and bloodstream infections.

Normal soil inhabitant. Found around barns and barnyards where it grows on animal waste.
