About Nickel, Urine test in Glenview

What the Nickel, Urine test measures

Nickel is a naturally occurring element found in soil, water, and many metal alloys. It is also present in some foods, including nuts, legumes, and chocolate. For most people, exposure occurs through diet, but occupational or environmental contact with nickel-containing dust, fumes, or solutions can increase the amount absorbed by the body.

The Nickel, Urine test quantifies nickel concentration in a urine sample. Urine nickel reflects the portion of the metal that has been absorbed and is being cleared by the kidneys. It is most useful for detecting relatively recent exposure, since nickel is excreted within hours to days after uptake.

Results are reported as a concentration, and interpretation depends on the collection method, hydration status, and the individual's baseline. A single elevated result does not by itself diagnose a health condition; it indicates that nickel exposure or excretion was higher than expected at the time of collection.
