Test ID BLOD1218 Carbohydrate Deficient Transferrin for Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation, Serum

Useful For

Screening for congenital disorders of glycosylation

 

This test is not useful for screening patients for chronic alcohol abuse.

Specimen Type

Serum


Ordering Guidance


This test is for congenital disorders of glycosylation. If the ordering provider is looking for evaluation of alcohol abuse, order CDTA / Carbohydrate Deficient Transferrin, Adult, Serum.

 

If either PMM2-CDG (CDG-Ia) or MPI-CDG (CDG-Ib) is suspected, order PMMIL / Phosphomannomutase and Phosphomannose Isomerase, Leukocytes.
