Exploring Phosphatidylethanol Cutoffs for Self-Reported Unhealthy Alcohol Use: An International Multi-Site Analysis. [PDF]
Phosphatidylethanol (PEth) is a biomarker that quantifies total drinking over the past 2–4 weeks, but PEth cutoffs for unhealthy drinking have not been well‐examined. Using self‐report as the reference standard, we estimated PEth cutoffs in a multinational sample and found substantial variability in cutoffs by region and by some other characteristics ...

Phosphatidylethanol blood analysis
This article aims to place the phosphatidylethanol (PEth) blood test in the detection area of ethanol consumption causing alcohol-related disorders, to present the current methods of analysis, data on interpretation, some practical applications and the prospects of use of this biomarker. PEth is a minor metabolite of ethanol.

Thermotropic properties of phosphatidylethanols
Phosphatidylethanol is formed when ethanol substitutes in the transphosphatidylation reaction catalyzed by phospholipase D. The structural and thermotropic properties of dipalmitoylphosphatidylethanol and dimyristoylphosphatidylethanol have been studied using differential scanning calorimetry, fluorescence spectroscopy, and 31P nuclear magnetic ...

Phosphatidylethanol is formed by phospholipase D in animal cells exposed to ethanol. Previous reports have demonstrated that the degradation of phosphatidylethanol is slow, indicating that this lipid may be present in the cells after ethanol itself has ...

Phosphatidylethanol and Alcohol Consumption in Reproductive Age Women [PDF]
Background: Fetal alcohol disorders are preventable, but self‐reported alcohol consumption can be misleading and impede effective treatment. Biomarkers represent an alternative method for assessing alcohol use, and this study evaluated the relationship between blood phosphatidylethanol (PEth) and alcohol use in a sample of reproductive age women ...

Phosphatidylethanol in steatotic liver disease [PDF]
Steatotic liver disease (SLD) encompasses metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), alcohol-related liver disease (ALD), and their combination (MetALD). Distinguishing these subclasses relies on accurately assessing current alcohol intake, particularly as subclass-specific drug therapies become available.
