This study aimed to investigate pre-analytical factors that affect the frequency of positive results in newborn screening for biotinidase deficiency. The study found that seasonal temperature changes and the use of newly printed filter cards for sample collection can impact the determination of biotinidase activity.
This study set out to examine pre-analytical factors affecting the frequency of positive results in newborn screening for biotinidase deficiency. This investigation was prompted by an increase in the annual screen positive rate for biotinidase deficiency in Ontario from 2.65x10-4 in 2016 to 6.57x10-4 in 2017. Season and trend decomposition was used to separate seasonality from an underlying trend in the time series of biotindase activity measurements for the period 2014-01-12 to 2019-07-27 (n = 798,770). This analysis revealed a marked seasonal effect (winter = median + <= 17 MRU, summer = mean -<= 20 MRU) and a non-linear negative trend. Seasonal temperature was correlated with biotinidase results (Pearson's r = 0.79) but not with the observed negative trend (Pearson's r = 0.0025). Time series analysis of biotinidase results grouped by print lot of filter paper revealed that recently printed filter paper cards inhibit biotinidase and that this inhibition resolved over time. This study demonstrates that biotindase activity is inhibited by both increased seasonal temperature and collection on newly printed filter cards.
