Ceruloplasmin

The Ceruloplasmin test measures the level of ceruloplasmin, a copper-carrying protein in the blood. It is primarily used to evaluate copper metabolism and diagnose conditions such as Wilson’s disease, a genetic disorder causing copper accumulation, or Menkes disease, a copper deficiency disorder. Low levels may indicate Wilson’s disease, malnutrition, or liver disease, while high levels can be associated with inflammation, infection, or certain cancers. The test is performed using a blood sample and may be ordered alongside serum copper or urinary copper tests for accurate assessment of copper-related disorders.
