Cadmium Testing

Cadmium testing identifies the presence and concentration of cadmium, a toxic metal, in products or substances. This is important because cadmium exposure can pose health risks, including kidney damage and bone fragility. The testing typically involves collecting a sample and analyzing it using techniques like atomic absorption spectroscopy or inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, which detect and measure cadmium levels accurately. The results determine if the product meets safety standards or if contamination is present, ensuring consumer safety and regulatory compliance.
