descriptionTesting is done as an assessment of toxic metal retention to address public health concerns of niobium leaching into drinking water. Variability in urine volume can drastically affect the concentration of elements and to compensate for urine dilution variation, elements are sometimes expressed per unit creatinine.
statusACTIVE

componentNiobium/Creatinine
propertySRto  =  Substance Ratio
timePt  =  Point in time:  To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements.
