The concentration of mercury in
urine reflects cumulative exposure over the previous 2-4
months.
Urinary mercury estimations may be
used for workers with reasonably constant medium to long-term
exposure. Blood mercury estimations should be used to monitor
workers who have had acute exposures such as those following
accidental spillages.
There is an HSE Biological
Monitoring Guidance Value of 20 µmol/mol creatinine in
'random' urine samples (no need to collect the sample at a specific
time in the shift).
Turnaround time is 20 working
days.
