The Ceruloplasmin – Serum Test measures the amount of ceruloplasmin, a copper-carrying protein produced by the liver, in the blood. Ceruloplasmin plays a key role in transporting copper throughout the body and has antioxidant properties.
This test helps assess copper metabolism and may be used in the diagnosis of Wilson’s disease, a rare inherited disorder that leads to copper buildup in the liver, brain, and other vital organs.

    Why It’s Done:

    Your doctor may recommend this test to:
    • Help diagnose or monitor Wilson’s disease.
    • Evaluate copper deficiency or copper overload.
    • Investigate liver function and related disorders.
    • Assess unexplained neurological or psychiatric symptoms.
    • Monitor patients with suspected malabsorption syndromes or nutritional deficiencies.

    Preparation:

    • Fasting is not usually required for this test.
    • Inform your doctor about any medications or supplements you are taking, especially those containing copper, estrogen, or birth control pills, as these can affect ceruloplasmin levels.
    • No other specific preparation is needed unless advised by your healthcare provider.
