About this test

Worried about nickel exposure? Nickel is a heavy metal found in industrial settings, jewellery, and certain foods, and excessive levels can lead to skin reactions, respiratory issues, and long-term toxicity. This test measures nickel levels in urine, helping assess recent exposure and whether it's accumulating in your body.

You'll need to visit Inuvi Clinic in London to collect your sample as the sample is not suitable for posting.
