Multi-element screen - as performed by Michigan State University
Elements must be present at fairly high concentrations to be detected by this screen. For the most part, concentrations high enough to be in the toxic range will be detected by this method.
This method is indicated particularly if more than one of the elements listed below is suspected of causing toxicologic disease. The table below shows the detection limit for the technique in parts per million (ppm) for liver or serum.
