C-Peptide is useful in distinguishing Insulinomas from exogenous insulin administration. It’s concentrations are severely decreased or absent in Type I Diabetes mellitus. C-Peptide is also useful in monitoring patients who have received islet cell or pancreatic transplants.
A C-peptide fasting serum test measures the amount of insulin your body produces. It’s a blood test that involves fasting overnight.
Purpose
To diagnose and monitor diabetes
To determine the cause of low blood sugar
To monitor treatment for tumors in the pancreas
To evaluate pancreatic function
How it’s performed
After fasting for 8 to 12 hours, a blood sample is taken in a red-top or gel-barrier tube
The serum is separated from the cells and transferred to a transport tube
The sample is refrigerated and transported
What it shows
High levels of C-peptide indicate type 2 diabetes
Low levels of C-peptide indicate type 1 diabetes
C-peptide levels can help distinguish between endogenous insulin (produced by the pancreas) and exogenous insulin (administered externally)
Other uses
C-peptide levels can help guide treatment decisions for diabetes or other insulin-related conditions
C-peptide levels can help monitor the health and function of the pancreas

C-Peptide is useful in distinguishing Insulinomas from exogenous insulin administration. It’s concentrations are severely decreased or absent in Type I Diabetes mellitus. C-Peptide is also useful in monitoring patients who have received islet cell or pancreatic transplants.
A postprandial C-peptide serum test measures the amount of C-peptide in your blood after eating. C-peptide is a byproduct of insulin production, and measuring it can help determine how well your pancreas is responding to food.
What it’s used for
Diagnosing and managing diabetes
Distinguishing between type 1 and type 2 diabetes
Tailoring treatment plans
Helping to find the cause of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar)
How it works
The pancreas releases equal amounts of C-peptide and insulin into the bloodstream
C-peptide stays in the blood longer than insulin, making it easier to measure
A C-peptide test can’t diagnose diabetes, but it can indicate if your body can produce insulin
What to expect
You may need to fast overnight before the test
The test is performed using a blood sample
The sample is collected in a red-top tube or gel-barrier tube
The sample is refrigerated during transport and storage
