Institute of Psychiatry / For Professionals / Clinical Neurobiology Laboratory (CNL) Carbohydrate Deficient Transferrin (%dCDT) is a bio-marker for heavy alcohol consumption. %dCDT, a heavy alcohol usage test, allows for the monitoring of alcohol consumption over an extended period of time.
It is normal for the transferrin in the blood to have 3-5 carbohydrate side-chains, however people who misuse alcohol have a higher proportion of transferrin in their blood which only have 0-2 carbohydrate side-chains. Hence the term carbohydrate deficient transferrin.
