A. ObjectivesThe primary purpose of the Trace Metals Facility Core is to provide CEHNM investigators the ability to obtainanalyses of biological samples for a broad array of metals including: lead, mercury, arsenic, iron, manganese,cadmium, copper, zinc, chromium, sodium, cobalt, platinum, potassium and others. In addition, the facilityprovides method development for these analyses, standardization, and quality control. Biochemical analysesthat help in the assessment of the physiological status of the subjects that are exposed to these metals arealso conducted. This laboratory is partially funded by our Superfund Basic Research Program (SBRP). Inthe recent successful competitive renewal of that SBRP, this Facility Core received a priority score of 120.
