Copper serum is one of the diagnostic methods of ascertaining whether a patient is suffering from some kind of liver problem or from a genetic disease called Wilson’s disease.
Optimal range: 1.5 - 3 Units
Copper is an essential mineral in the body and directly or indirectly affects virtually every bodily system function. Copper is required for energy production, cardiovascular health, neurotransmitter activity, female reproductive system, skin health, blood formation and the immune system.
Optimal range: 75.3 - 192 mcg/dL
Copper is part of enzymes, which are proteins that help biochemical reactions occur in every cell. Copper is involved in the absorption, storage and metabolism of iron. The symptoms of a copper deficiency are similar to iron deficiency anemia. The liver makes a special protein, ceruloplasm, to transport copper and help convert iron to a form that can be used by other tissues.
Optimal range: 0.6 - 1.8 mcg/mL

The copper to zinc ratio refers to the relative proportion of copper to zinc in the body, and it is an important indicator of overall health. Both copper and zinc are essential trace minerals that play crucial roles in various physiological processes. An optimal balance between the two is vital for several functions, including immune system efficiency, antioxidant defense, and neurological function. Imbalances in this ratio, whether skewed towards an excess of copper or a deficiency of zinc, can be associated with a range of health concerns.
Optimal range: 15 - 60 mcg/24h
Investigation of Wilson disease and obstructive liver disease using a 24-hour urine specimen
Optimal range: 0.8 - 1.75 ug/ml , 12.59 - 27.54 umol/L
Copper is part of enzymes, which are proteins that help biochemical reactions occur in every cell. Copper is involved in the absorption, storage and metabolism of iron. The symptoms of a copper deficiency are similar to iron deficiency anemia. The liver makes a special protein, ceruloplasm, to transport copper and help convert iron to a form that can be used by other tissues.
Optimal range: 0.5 - 1 ug/ml

Copper serum is one of the diagnostic methods of ascertaining whether a patient is suffering from some kind of liver problem or from a genetic disease called Wilson’s disease.
Optimal range: 0.8 - 1 Ratio
The Copper/Zinc Ratio on a NutriSTAT panel represents a significant biomarker in nutritional and health assessments, offering insights into the balance between two essential trace elements: copper and zinc. Copper and zinc are pivotal for numerous physiological processes.
Copper plays a crucial role in:
→ the formation of red blood cells,
→ the maintenance of nerve cells,
→ and the immune system.
Reference range: -3, -2, -1, 0, +1, +2, +3
Coprobacillus cateniformis ferment glucose and other common sugars primarily to acetic and lactic acid, and to a lesser extent butyrate and valerate.
Optimal range: 10 - 100 Units
Coprococcus, a genus of bacteria within the gut microbiome, is often analyzed in gut health tests to assess its levels and overall contribution to intestinal health. Belonging to the Firmicutes phylum, Coprococcus plays a significant role in the complex ecosystem of the gut. It is known for its involvement in the fermentation of dietary fibers and the production of important metabolic byproducts, such as short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs). SCFAs, including butyrate, are vital for maintaining the health of the intestinal lining, providing energy to colon cells, and regulating inflammation and immune function.
The presence and abundance of Coprococcus in the gut can be influenced by various factors. Diet, particularly the intake of fiber-rich foods like vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and legumes, significantly impacts the levels of Coprococcus, as these bacteria thrive on the fibers found in these foods. A diet lacking in such fibers can lead to a decrease in Coprococcus, affecting the overall balance and health of the gut microbiome. Additionally, lifestyle factors like stress, sleep patterns, and physical activity, as well as the use of medications like antibiotics, can also influence the levels of these bacteria.
Optimal range: 10.4 - 16.5 Units
The abundance of Coprococcus eutactus is associated with greater bacterial gene richness in the gut.
Coprococcus is a genus of anaerobic cocci which are all part of the human faecal flora. Coprococcus includes those gram-positive, anaerobic cocci that actively ferment carbohydrates, producing butyric and acetic acids with formic or propionic and/or lactic acids. Fermentable carbohydrates are either required or are highly stimulatory for growth and continued subculture. The genus is bio-chemically closely related to Ruminococcus.
Optimal range: 0 - 120000000 CFU/g stool

Coproporphyrin I is a porphyrin metabolite arising from heme synthesis.
Optimal range: 0 - 49 ug/L
Coproporphyrin III is a porphyrin derivative.
Small amounts of porphyrins (coproporphyrin) are excreted in normal human urine. Coproporphyrin also is present in bile and feces.
