Description

Cobalt is a mineral that's part of our diet. It's mostly removed from our body through urine, with a small amount leaving through stool. While cobalt is necessary, too much can be harmful, especially in certain work environments. Since cobalt isn't mined in the U.S., it's usually brought in from other countries.

What patients is this test right for?

This test might be recommended for individuals who are exposed to cobalt in their workplace or those who have symptoms of cobalt toxicity.

Symptoms of Cobalt Toxicity:

  • Heart problems
  • Thyroid damage
