Order Nickel, Urine testThe Nickel, Urine test measures the amount of nickel excreted in urine, offering a direct view of recent exposure to this naturally occurring metal.

About Nickel, Urine test in Normal
Urine nickel testing reflects the portion of absorbed nickel that the kidneys have cleared from the bloodstream.
Nickel enters the body through inhalation, ingestion, or skin contact. Once absorbed, it is distributed to tissues and eventually eliminated, primarily in urine. A urine collection captures this excreted fraction, which tends to reflect exposure over the preceding hours to days rather than long-term body stores.
The test is typically ordered when someone has known or suspected exposure to nickel-containing dusts, fumes, or compounds, or when evaluating symptoms that may relate to metal toxicity. Because nickel is common in foods, water, and everyday objects, results are interpreted against reference ranges that account for normal background levels.
Proper collection matters. The lab provides specific instructions, which may include timing, container type, and any handling precautions. Following those instructions supports an accurate measurement and reduces the chance of external contamination affecting the result. Reporting is generally available within a few business days.
