Test code: 3484
Specimen: Plasma
Fasting: Not stated
LOINC: 5622-6
Turnaround: Set up: Tues, Thurs, Sat

Laboratory assay overview

Occupational exposure and exposure to environmental contamination of chromium may lead to toxicity. The need for chromium supplements is unproven. Supplements taken in excess can lead to toxicity.

Verify these ranges and sources

We compile every detail above directly from named laboratory directories and published clinical studies. Laboratories calculate standard reference intervals from the statistical distribution of tested populations for a specific assay method and demographic group, rather than setting universal optimal targets.

Always review your personal lab results with a licensed clinician, or track your lab history and health goals in Aumnivida.
