Welding Fumes Biological Monitoring Kit
Metallic components in welding fumes can be monitored using our metals in urine biological test kit. This kit is particularly suitable for those likely to be exposed to hot metal fumes from welding, torch cutting, plasma or laser cutting, and smelting. This kit is suitable to evaluate the legislative compliance of exposure control in a workplace environment.
The test kit is suitable for the individual evaluation of the following metals: Chromium, Cadmium, Nickel and Manganese.
- Easy to use with straightforward instructions.
- Reliable and objective assessment of all exposure routes.
- Each test kit contains 5 metal test for 1 operative.
- Laboratory consent form
- Provides you with an accurate concentration of the contaminants in the urine and evaluation against the established biological guideline values.
The process of welding belongs between important sources of pollution of the working environment with heavy metals and other harmful compounds including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. According to IARC classification the welding fumes are included into group 2B and are supposed as possible human carcinogens. Number of different epidemiological studies have proved the relationship between welding and serious health disorders namely malignancies.
Our Welding metals biological monitoring kit has been developed to evaluate the relative concentration of metallic components of welding fume absorbed into the body vial all routes of exposure (e.g. Inhalation, skin absorption and ingestion).
Step One:
Read the instructions and fill in the required documentation. Fill in the sample analysis consent form with unique identifiers to allow you to link the results with the correct people and processes.
Step Two:
Collect the urine sample either post shift or once you finished working with the process. Follow the instruction for more specific sampling instruction.
Step Three:
Post the samples to our laboratory.
Step Four:
You will receive a report with the results and interpretation of the collected data.
Step Five:
Our qualified industrial hygienist will contact you and answer any questions you may have about the results or processes.
