Vickie - We have also had this same problem with
Athena.  You may want to contact The Children's
Hospital of Buffalo.  The Robert Guthrie Biochemical
Genetics Laboratory is affiliated with them.  They
were very courteous and helpful with providing
information and requirements for using their
laboratory.
