Ceruloplasmin testing is used primarily, along with blood and/or urine copper tests, to help diagnose Wilson disease, a rare inherited disorder associated with excess storage of copper in the liver, brain, and other organs, and with decreased levels of ceruloplasmin.Copper is an essential mineral that performs vital roles in the body. About 95% of the copper in the blood is bound to ceruloplasmin. Only a small amount of copper is normally present in the blood in a free (unbound) state. For more information, read the "What is being tested/" section.Rarely, a ceruloplasmin test may be ordered with a copper test to help diagnose abnormalities in copper metabolism, copper deficiencies, or the rare inherited disorder Menkes kinky hair syndrome.
