Heavy Metal Testing
Heavy metals refer to any metallic chemical element that has a relatively high density and is toxic or poisonous at low concentrations. Sometimes, it can be found in many foods.
Heavy metal testing in Merieux NutriSciences India
Heavy metals, such as arsenic, lead, and mercury, have no established health benefit and have been shown to lead to illness, impairment, and in high doses, death.
Low levels of toxic heavy metals present as residues in food can affect human health adversely. This is the reason why we can perform routine testing for arsenic, cadmium, lead, mercury, and others, employing ICP/MS to meet high sensitivity even in very complex matrices.
