    The biological, clinical and social effects of alcohol abuse have long made evident the need for objective and specific markers for alcohol-related diseases and for early detection of alcohol ... consumers at risk. Alcohol abusersmay exhibit several clinico-chemical alterations, some of which have been used as markers of alcoholism, e.g.: gama glutamyltransferase (GGT), aspartat aminotransferase (AST), alanin aminotransferase (ALT), and mean corpuscular volume (MCV). All of the markers available thus far have two drawbacks: either they are indicators of disease in a paricular organ, with poor specifity for different etiological possibilities, or they are not sensitive enough to detect abuse before the stage of organic complications. During the last decade a new diagnostic marker -CDT (carbohydrate-deficient transferrin) has been introduced that appears to fulfill important clinical criteria. It is apparently dependent on ethanol or its metabolism, it appears in serum after regular high alcohol intake.
