    Trace Mineral Panel (ICP/MS)

    Test Code
    1070
    $40.00

    About this Test

    Measurement of trace minerals by inductively-coupled plasma/mass spectrometry. Targets include copper, cobalt, iron, manganese, molybdenum, selenium, and zinc.  A tissue/feed prep fee will be added to tissue and feed specimens. 

    Specimen

    One or more of the following: 

    • 1 mL serum/plasma +/- 0.5 mL EDTA whole blood*
      • For birds, 0.6 mL EDTA or heparinized whole blood is adequate.
    • 5 g fresh liver
    • 50 mg fresh liver biopsy (approx. 3 Tru-Cut samples, no fluid added)
    • 500 g feed

     *Serum/plasma samples are required for this panel. Whole blood may be useful to evaluate chronic selenium status, as concentrations reflect selenium exposure over an extended period. Serum/plasma selenium provides information on real time concentrations only. TVMDL provides reference intervals for both serum/plasma and whole blood selenium for cattle, horses, sheep, birds, and white-tailed deer. For goats, TVMDL has reference intervals for serum/plasma only.
