Heavy Metal Environmental Testing

Environmental Test for Heavy Metals that can be seen in wildfire Ash/ soot/ residue

Arsenic
A toxic metal associated with cancer, skin lesions, and cardiovascular effects; harmful even at low-level chronic exposure.

Barium
Can affect the cardiovascular and nervous systems; elevated exposure may cause muscle weakness and cardiac irregularities.

Cadmium
A known carcinogen linked to kidney damage and bone loss; readily absorbed through inhalation or surface contact.

Chromium (Total)
Certain forms are carcinogenic and can cause respiratory and skin irritation; often elevated after high-temperature combustion.

Lead
A potent neurotoxin with no safe exposure level; affects cognitive function, especially in children, and damages multiple organ systems.

Selenium
Essential in trace amounts but toxic when elevated; overexposure can cause gastrointestinal and neurological symptoms.

Silver
High exposure may cause skin and organ deposition; indicates industrial or electronic material contamination.

Mercury
A highly toxic metal affecting the nervous system; exposure is linked to cognitive, motor, and developmental impairment.
