It also includes urinary creatinine to account for hydration status, enabling more accurate interpretation of measured heavy metal concentrations. It is appropriate for individuals concerned about environmental or occupational exposure to toxic metals, including those with possible lead-based paint exposure, work in agriculture, construction, mining or metal industries, smoking, or use of certain traditional medicines.
