Nickel
The Nickel blood test measures the level of nickel in the bloodstream. Nickel exposure can occur through occupational environments, metal jewellery, implants, or environmental sources.
Nickel is a common cause of allergic contact dermatitis, but systemic exposure may also occur in some cases.
Elevated levels may be associated with occupational exposure or metal implants.
Symptoms of excess exposure can include skin reactions and, rarely, systemic effects.
