Validation of in vivo toenail measurements of manganese and mercury using a portable x-ray fluorescence device

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Toenail metal concentrations can be used as an effective biomarker for exposure to environmental toxicants. Typically toenail clippings are measured ex vivo using inductively-coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). X-ray fluorescence (XRF) toenail metal measurements done...
