Order C-Peptide, Blood TestThe C-Peptide, Blood Profile measures a fragment released when the pancreas converts proinsulin into insulin.

About C-Peptide, Blood Test in Jackson
This profile is used to assess endogenous insulin production, the insulin the pancreas makes rather than insulin taken as medication.
C-peptide is split from proinsulin in equal amounts to insulin, so its concentration in blood generally reflects pancreatic beta-cell activity. Exogenous insulin does not contain C-peptide, which makes the marker useful when the source of insulin in the body is unclear.
The test is often ordered alongside glucose and insulin measurements. Results are interpreted in context: high C-peptide can accompany insulin resistance, while low C-peptide can point to reduced beta-cell output. Reference ranges vary by laboratory, so the report's own range is the appropriate comparison.
Sample collection requires a blood draw, and the laboratory may request that the specimen be handled under specific conditions before analysis. Turnaround is typically one to three business days, though the exact time depends on the performing laboratory.
