heavy metals monitoring
Heavy metals monitoring involves testing environmental samples—such as water, soil, and air—for metals like lead, mercury, cadmium, and arsenic, which can be toxic in high amounts. This process helps identify potential health and environmental risks by measuring metal levels against safety standards. Regular monitoring ensures that contamination is detected early, allowing for effective management and protection of public health, ecosystems, and food safety. It’s a crucial part of environmental oversight, especially near industrial sites or contaminated areas, to prevent harmful exposure and maintain a safe environment.
