Labcorp 1 test
Panels that include this biomarker
Copper, RBC and Plasma 081162
2 analytes · Plasma · Fasting not stated · Turnaround 4 - 6 days
Labcorp catalog pageMethod and collection
- Method
- Inductively coupled plasma/mass spectrometry (ICP/MS)
- Collection
- Both packed cells and plasma are required. Separate before shipping. Failure to separate may cause rejection due to hemolysis of red cells and contamination of the plasma. Transfer RBCs and plasma into separate plastic, acid-washed, or trace metal-free tubes. Specimen must be received at the test facility within five days of collection.
Quest Diagnostics 1 test
Single-analyte tests
Copper, RBC 3481
Blood · Fasting not stated · Turnaround Set up: Sun, Wed, Fri
Quest Diagnostics catalog pageMethod and collection
- Method
- Inductively Coupled Plasma/Mass Spectrometry (ICP/MS)
- Collection
- Carefully clean skin prior to venipuncture. Avoid worksite collection. Red blood cells trace metal: Use the EDTA trace metal-free (royal blue-top) tube (Becton-Dickinson catalog #367736) for RBC trace metal testing. Packed cells: Centrifuge to separate plasma from RBCs and discard plasma. Transfer RBCs to a plastic transfer tube from a Quest Diagnostics (trace element and metal-free) collection kit or transfer to a transport tube.

Verify these ranges and sources
We compile this page from named laboratory catalogs, guidelines and studies. Labs calculate reference intervals from the people they test, for one assay method and one population group, so an interval describes that population rather than an optimal target.
