QuickSilver Scientific Combination Mercury Tri-Test and Blood Metals Panel - 1 test kit

Product benefits:

Measure mercury levels: The Mercury Tri-Test utilizes blood, hair, and urine to measure exposure and excretion of inorganic and methyl mercury.

• Distinguish forms of mercury: This test provides Exclusive Dual Mercury Analysis. The Tri-Test separates inorganic mercury, which is the most toxic form, and methyl mercury, which is either from seafood or amalgam-based mercury. It measures them directly.
• Bypass requirement of Challenge Testing: What could be the disadvantage associated with Challenge testing? It may lead to metal redistribution in the organs and difficulty identifying long-term toxicity and mercury excretion capabilities. To overcome this challenge, the Tri-Test provides more information on sources of exposure, body burden, and excretion ability of mercury forms.
• Option for broad screening: Both nutrient and Toxic Metals Analysis can be done with this comprehensive test. The Blood Metals Panel screens a wide range of elements. Due to this, it can demonstrate elevated exposure to toxic and potentially toxic metals or any imbalance related to the nutrient elements in whole blood.

Product features:
The Mercury testing kit is the only clinical test that does a tri-test using hair, blood, and urine samples for dual mercury analysis.

• Challenge testing might redistribute metals in the body. It can also have a hard time acknowledging any long-term toxicity or the presence of a unique mercury excretion capability. But the Mercury Tri-Test provides the exact information on body burden, the sources of exposure and the capability to defecate each form of mercury.
• The blood metal panel examines various components in blood to detect excessive exposure to harmful metals and nutritional imbalances.
• Quicksilver Scientific’s Combo Mercury Tri-Test screens for 16 nutritional elements and toxic metals. Nutrient Elements: Calcium, Lithium,  Copper, Magnesium, Molybdenum, Manganese,  Zinc, Selenium. Likely Toxic Metals: Cobalt, Strontium, Lead, Cadmium, Arsenic, Silver, Mercury, Antimony.

FAQs on Mercury Tri-Test 

What are some things to remember while using Quicksilver Scientific’s Combination Mercury Tri-Test?

• Make sure your blood sample is collected by a phlebotomist.
• Collect your urine and blood samples no more than 48 hours apart.
• Do not consume any chelating agents like, ALA, EDTA and Glutathione for about 17 days before the collection of samples.
• Avoid eating any seafood or fish before 72 hours of the test. But you can still consume fish oil.
• There is no need to fast before the sample collection.
• If you are menstruating then don’t collect the urine sample.
• If you have just gotten a hair perm then don’t collect the hair sample.

How can you remove toxic mercury from the body?

The first step to remove the mercury would be to stop all kinds of exposure. Sometimes people also use chelation therapy where the medication goes into the body and brings the metal out through urine.

What are the signs of inorganic mercury in blood?

You might get headaches, tremors, muscle weakness, emotional imbalance, and difficulty in breathing and sleeping.

Where is mercury kept in our body?

Our body stores all the mercury in the kidneys, bones, blood, liver, brain, fatty tissues, and spleen.

How much mercury is harmful to humans?

200 mg of methyl mercury is reportedly ha
