Comprehensive Alcohol Testing with Detailed Insights into Consumption and Health

Overview of the Test

The Alcohol Profile is a comprehensive blood test assessing alcohol consumption and its impact on health. It measures key markers, including: Blood Alcohol Level, Liver Function, MCV, CDT, PEth, providing insights into recent and long-term alcohol use. Results are delivered securely within 5–7 working days, making it ideal for personal, workplace, or legal requirements.

Why It Would Be Used

This test is designed for individuals needing precise analysis of alcohol consumption and its effects:

Legal and Workplace Compliance: Suitable for court-ordered tests or occupational health requirements.
Health Monitoring: Understand how alcohol impacts liver function and overall health.
Personal Reassurance: Gain detailed insights into your alcohol consumption for personal reasons.

Our accredited laboratory ensures reliable results for any requirement.

Included Tests

The Alcohol Profile includes the following:

Blood Alcohol Level: Measures the amount of alcohol in your bloodstream.
Liver Function Test (LFT): Assesses liver enzyme levels affected by alcohol use.
Mean Corpuscular Volume (MCV): Detects changes in red blood cell size from chronic alcohol use.
Carbohydrate-Deficient Transferrin (CDT): Identifies excessive alcohol consumption over 1-2 weeks.
Phosphatidylethanol (PEth): A highly sensitive marker for alcohol intake up to 4 weeks prior.

This comprehensive approach ensures detailed insights into recent and habitual alcohol use.

Period of Detection

The Alcohol Profile provides a snapshot of both recent and longer-term alcohol consumption:

PEth detects alcohol use up to 4 weeks prior.
CDT reflects heavy consumption over the past 2–3 weeks.
Blood Alcohol Level measures current alcohol levels.

This makes it suitable for both short-term and long-term consumption analysis.
