Glutamate Dehydrogenase as a Marker of Alcohol Dependence
Alcohol and Alcoholism Advance Access published online on October 7, 2009

The aim of this study was to examine glutamate dehydrogenase (GLDH) in the diagnostic combinations as a result of new findings.

GLDH is an equally accurate marker of alcoholism in comparison to others, if its significantly faster decrease is taken into consideration. We strongly believe that watching changes in the activity of laboratory markers of alcoholism is an effective yet overlooked aid.
