The Ceruloplasmin Test measures the amount of ceruloplasmin, a copper carrying protein, in your blood. You may also see it called serum ceruloplasmin, ceruloplasmin level, or the Cp test. If your doctor ordered this, you can book at participating labs on LabFinder.
Some labs list it as a copper transport protein test. It helps show how your body handles copper and can give clues about liver health, inflammation, and certain rare copper balance conditions.
Common reasons: checking for Wilson disease or other copper balance problems, looking into signs like jaundice, belly pain, or tiredness that may point to liver issues, evaluating low copper or zinc concerns, and following up on abnormal copper results. Results timing: many labs release results in a few business days, but timing can vary by location.
You will check in, confirm your details, and review your order. A phlebotomist cleans your arm and draws a small tube of blood. A bandage is placed and you can return to normal activities. Plan for about 10 to 20 minutes at the site.
Yes, this is a quick, routine blood draw and is considered very safe. You might feel a quick pinch, notice a small bruise, or feel a little lightheaded for a moment afterward, but those effects usually fade quickly. Be sure to tell the staff if you take blood thinners, have a bleeding disorder, or if you have fainted during blood draws before. They will take extra care to keep you comfortable. High dose biotin supplements can affect some test methods, so tell the staff if you take biotin.
Fasting: usually not needed unless your doctor says so. Hydrate: drink water to help the blood draw. Medications and supplements: bring a list, include zinc, copper, hormones, and biotin, your doctor may guide you on holding any item. Stay steady: avoid very intense exercise right before the draw. Bring a photo ID and any recent lab results if available.
Wilson disease, copper deficiency, copper excess from supplements or other sources, liver diseases such as hepatitis or cirrhosis, kidney loss of protein such as nephrotic syndrome, and general inflammation since ceruloplasmin can rise during illness.
