Clinical Toxicology and Occupational Medicine
Occupational medicine is the branch of medicine concerned with the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of diseases caused by work activities. It is now well established that continuous exposure to chemical and physical agents such as radiation, or to volatile substances of varying intrinsic toxicity, can have serious consequences for human health. Through the scientific expertise of its staff, the Manfredone & Nicolosi Centre offers reliable analytical support for this type of testing, performing:

How it is done
The test can be carried out on various biological samples, including keratin (hair).
