Introduction

The analysis of nutritional, essential, and toxic elements in urine is a critical tool for assessing human health, environmental exposure, and metabolic function. Urine serves as a non-invasive biological matrix that reflects the body's excretion of trace elements, providing valuable insights into nutritional deficiencies, toxic metal exposure, and the status of essential minerals. Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) is a highly sensitive and precise analytical technique that enables the detection of trace elements at ultra-low concentrations, making it ideal for comprehensive urine analysis.
