Methodology
ICP-MS
The test is performed using Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS). This advanced technology is considered the gold standard for trace element analysis due to its exceptional sensitivity and precision. Key features of this methodology include:
* High Sensitivity: ICP-MS can accurately measure heavy metals in a sample at extremely low concentrations (parts per billion or trillion), which is crucial for detecting toxic levels before significant symptoms appear.
* Multi-Element Analysis: The technique allows for the simultaneous detection and quantification of a wide range of elements in a single run, making it ideal for a comprehensive profile.
* Accuracy and Specificity: The mass spectrometer can distinguish between different elements based on their unique atomic masses, providing highly specific and accurate results.
Sample Required
WB EDTA 3 ML
* WB EDTA 3 ML: Three milliliters of whole blood collected in a tube containing EDTA as an anticoagulant. Whole blood is a suitable sample for assessing recent or ongoing exposure to heavy metals as it reflects the circulating levels of the elements.
Preparation
#1) Inform your doctor: Prior to the test, it is crucial to inform your doctor about any recent occupational exposures, hobbies, or dietary habits that might involve heavy metals. #2) Avoid seafood: T... Read more
