Zinc, Copper & Ceruloplasmin Test
The Zinc, Copper & Ceruloplasmin Test combines three blood tests that provide information about zinc levels, copper levels, and ceruloplasmin, a protein produced primarily by the liver that transports copper in the bloodstream.
Why Test Zinc, Copper & Ceruloplasmin?
Zinc and copper are essential minerals that play important roles in normal body functions. Ceruloplasmin helps transport copper through the bloodstream and is involved in copper metabolism.
Measuring these markers together can provide a broader look at mineral and copper status when testing is clinically appropriate.
Why May This Be Relevant for GHK-Cu Users?
GHK-Cu is a copper-containing peptide. Individuals using copper-containing products may wish to discuss copper and mineral monitoring with their healthcare provider.
Testing copper and ceruloplasmin may provide information about copper status, while zinc testing provides additional information about another essential mineral that interacts with copper metabolism.
However, these tests do not measure the amount of GHK-Cu in the body, determine how much copper is stored in tissues, or establish whether GHK-Cu use is safe. Results should be interpreted by a healthcare provider based on the individual's health history, product use, and other clinical information.

Important Information
No insurance required for eligible purchases. Testing is subject to availability and applicable laboratory requirements.
This testing is not a comprehensive evaluation of liver function and cannot diagnose liver disease, copper toxicity, zinc deficiency, or other medical conditions on its own. Additional testing may be recommended by your healthcare provider when appropriate.
Aeris Phlebotomy Services does not diagnose medical conditions or interpret laboratory results. Please consult your healthcare provider to review and discuss your results.
