Urinary palladium (Pd) provides an indication of recent or ongoing exposure to the metal, and endogenous detoxification to a lesser extent.
As one of the rarest elements in the earth’s crust, Pd is a precious metal associated with the platinum-group metals. The chemical and physical properties of Pd account for its widespread use in catalytic and automobile related industrial applications, electronic devices, dental applications, and fine jewelry (white gold). Currently Pd is used in the manufacture of the tiny multi-layer ceramic capacitors used in wide-screen television screens, computers and mobile phones.
Optimal range: 0 - 1.8 µmol/L
Palmitelaidic acid is a trans fat.
Trans fatty acids are prevalent in most diets because of the widespread use of hydrogenated oils used by manufacturers of margarines, bakery products, and peanut butters.
Optimal range: 18 - 23 wt %
