CHROMIUM
Number 24 on the "periodic table" of elements
Tests the presence of ions of Chromium to a high degree of accuracy to
detect contamination in the body and on a wide range of materials in your environment
Chromium is a naturally occurring element found in rocks, animals, plants, soil, and in volcanic dust and gases.
Chromium is present in the environment in several different forms. The most common forms are chromium(0), chromium(III),
and chromium(VI). No taste or odor is associated with chromium compounds.
The metal chromium, which is the chromium(0) form, is used for making steel. Chromium(VI) and chromium(III) are
used for chrome plating, dyes and pigments, leather tanning, and wood preserving.
Chromium(III) is an essential nutrient that helps the body use sugar, protein, and fat.
Toxicity Limits
The exact levels where chromium becomes toxic is not clear. The recommended therapeutic value is
between 50 - 200 ppm. However, this is applicable only to organic chromium that the body absorbs and
retains and therefore not usually excreted and found in urine. The toxic form of chromium is inorganic
chromium that the body does not absorb and therefore eliminated in urine. It is this inorganic chromium
that requires testing and its presence should be 0.
