A comprehensive profile of toxic elements measure in urine. Suitable for screening for acute exposures and to assess chronic environmental exposures. Results are reported corrected for creatinine allowing for urine concentration (a 6-hour urine collection is recommended as a representative sample). Elements measured include: Aluminium, antimony, arsenic, barium, beryllium, bismuth, cadmium, caesium, gadolinium, lead, mercury,…

read moreIndications Cadmium is a toxic heavy metal that poses significant health risks to humans and the environment. It is a naturally occurring element found in the Earth's crust, but human activities have increased its concentration in the environment, leading to widespread exposure. Cadmium is a biproduct of various industrial processes, including mining, smelting, and battery…
read moreIndications: Arsenic is a toxic metal with no known biological function in man. It is used in the production of semiconductor materials for the electronics industry, as a poison in weed and vermin killers and sometimes in the production of paints, wallpapers and ceramics (for yellow colouring). It is also found in water, soil and…
read moreIndications: Aluminium is the third most abundant element in the earth’s crust. However it is only since man started extracting aluminium and its subsequent widespread use in cooking and other household utensils, in packaging materials and in salt and other foods, antiperspirants & deodorants and drugs (including antacids, analgesics and anti-diarrhoea and ulcer remedies), that…
