Order Nickel, Urine testThe Nickel, Urine test measures the amount of nickel excreted in urine, offering a direct view of recent exposure to this naturally occurring metal.

About Nickel, Urine test in Ferry Pass
This test is typically ordered when a person may have been exposed to nickel in an occupational or environmental setting, or when symptoms suggest metal toxicity.
Nickel is a silvery metal found in soil, water, and many industrial and consumer products, including stainless steel, alloys, plating, batteries, and some jewelry. Exposure can occur through inhalation of dust or fumes, skin contact, or ingestion of contaminated food and water.
The kidneys filter nickel from the bloodstream and excrete it primarily in urine. A urine nickel measurement therefore captures recent exposure and the body's current rate of elimination. Results are reported as a concentration, often in micrograms per liter or micrograms per gram of creatinine, and are interpreted against the laboratory's established reference range.
Because nickel is cleared relatively quickly, timing of collection matters. A single spot urine sample reflects a short window, while a 24-hour collection can smooth out fluctuations. The test does not diagnose a specific disease on its own; it is one piece of information that a clinician evaluates alongside exposure history, symptoms, and other laboratory findings.
