Phosphatidylethanol in Blood as a Marker of Alcohol Dependence

Archives of Psychiatry Research : An International Journal of Psychiatry and Related Sciences
Aim: To establish the cut-off value of phosphatidylethanol (PEth) concentration in the blood for detecting alcohol dependence. Materials and Methods: Using the method of high-performance liquid chromatography - tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC - MS), the concentration of PEth in the blood of 127 alcohol-dependent men undergoing hospital treatment was ...

Isomer Composition Assessment of Synthetic Phosphatidylethanol by Collision-Induced and Ozone-Induced Dissociation Mass Spectrometry. [PDF]

Drug Test Anal
The direct blood-alcohol biomarker phosphatidylethanol (PEth), especially its most abundant analogue 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-phosphatidylethanol (PEth 16:0/18:1) has gained increasing relevance in clinical and forensic applications for assessing alcohol ...

Examining Phosphatidylethanol (PEth) Formation Rates Within and Between Subjects in Ex Vivo Whole Blood. [PDF]

Drug Test Anal
PEth formation rate increased with increasing ethanol concentration with variability between participants but was mostly consistent within‐subject. No relationship was observed between phosphatidylcholine concentrations and PEth formation rates. PEth concentrations should be used to monitor an individual's ethanol use over time, rather than compared ...

Phosphatidylethanol, ethyl glucuronide and ethanol in blood as complementary biomarkers for alcohol consumption

Journal of Mass Spectrometry and Advances in the Clinical Lab, 2021
Alcohol biomarkers can monitor both recent and long-term drinking and provide information about drinking habits as a complement to self-reporting. Ethyl glucuronide (EtG) and phosphatidylethanol (PEth) are the most sensitive available biomarkers for this

Stability of Phosphatidylethanol in Dry Blood Spot Cards [PDF]

Alcohol and Alcoholism, 2015
The analysis of phosphatidylethanol, a promising direct ethanol metabolite, in dry blood spots (PEth-DBS) is advantageous due to ease of storage, transportation and minimal invasiveness of capillary blood collection. One potential application of PEth-DBS is to confirm prenatal alcohol exposure in newborns suspected of FASD; however, stability of PEth ...
