| name | TF gene full mutation analysis in Blood or Tissue by Sequencing | ||
| description | Transferrin (TF) gene sequencing may be performed in conjunction with a Carbohydrate Deficient Transferrin (CDT) assay to rule out accusations of excessive alcohol consumption. CDT assays are used to identify and monitor individuals who have been charged with excessive alcohol consumption. However, some patients who have certain variants in the TF gene are unable to add the carbohydrate chain to the transferrin protein. This makes them carbohydrate deficient even if they are not consuming alcohol. Identification of specific variants in the TF gene support the lack of alcohol consumption. | ||

Associated Observations | |||
LOINC codes that represent optional associated observation(s) for a clinical observation or laboratory test. A LOINC term may represent a single associated observation or panel containing several associated observations. | |||
History/Usage | |||
| first released | |||
| last updated | 2.66 | ||
| last change type | MAJ - change to name field other than Component; | ||
| change reason | Based on LOINC Committee review (June 2019), updated the Property from "Prid" to "Find" and Scale from "Nar" to "Doc" to align with the current LOINC model for naming collections of information reported in narrative and/or structured formats. | ||
