Biochemical tests for the detection of alcoholism: comparison of plasma alpha-amino-n-butyric acid with other available tests.

S Shaw, S L Lue, C S Lieber.   

Abstract

The measurement of AANB relative to leucine was found to be a useful biochemical test for the detection of chronic alcohol consumption. This test, in combination with GGTP determinations, provided a sensitive means of detection (81% positive) for chronic alcohol consumption with a minimum of false positive determinations (2%).
