Heavy Metals Test - Mercury Kit
Preparation for Testing
Patient/User Preparation
Various medications or supplements taken by the patient/user may have an impact on the results of the test. Birth control pills often
produce elevated levels of copper in the blood. Drugs taken for high blood pressure frequently contain diuretics which increase
the amount of liquid discharged and dilute the urine. The intake of Vitamin C should be discontinued 3 days before the test. It is
also recommended that use of iron and trace element supplements be stopped for
a few days before the test. The patient/user is advised to limit the intake of liquids 24 hours prior to the test.
Urine Specimen Preparation
The urine to be tested should come from first morning urine. Urine samples taken during the day may be tested but the
results might be less accurate. Only about 30 ml. of the urine sample is required for each test.
Sputum (Saliva) Specimen Preparation
Depending on the surface condition of amalgam fillings, their release of mercury ions into the oral cavity may be screened accurately.
Patient/User need to chew a stick of sugarless gum for about 10 minutes. Please do not swallow the saliva and collect about 5-10 ml.
of saliva for screening.
Water Preparation
No preparation is necessary. The tap or other water collected can be tested and the reaction (result) would be immediate. Always use
first morning water sample from faucet or tap
Dust, Dirt or Other Materials (paint, rice, milk, food, etc.) Specimen Preparation
Take a small amount of the material to be tested and place in a plastic container. Add about 30 ml. of distilled water to the material.
Shake the contents vigorously and allow to settle overnight (at least 24 hours). Screen the solution for
presence of mercury.
Dishes or glasses
Use only distilled water. Pour distilled water into the dish or glass to be tested. Let the solution stand for at least 12 hours before
testing the solution.
