Test for heavy metals and toxic trace elements

OLYMP CDLUS informs you about the introduction of new research in the mode of CMS - chromatography-mass spectrometry (hereinafter as CMS) for heavy metals and essential trace elements.

The most popular variant of tandem CMS is in the mode of monitoring specified reactions when fragmentation of the selected precursor ion (usually a molecular ion) is recorded with the formation of a known product ion.

The main advantages of the inductively coupled mass spectrometry method:

highly sensitive and reliable examination method;

one analysis quantifies more than 50 dominant genera and species of microorganisms - potential participants in inflammatory processes;

unlike widely used diagnostic methods - cultural, immuno-serological, molecular biological, CMS indicates a whole range of microbes that are traditionally not taken into account, as a result of which the patient remains underexamined with all the ensuing consequences;

A unique feature of CMS study is the ability to identify pathogens that are in a Dormant state when microcolonies are enveloped in a protective polysaccharide capsule;

the technique is versatile. It is used to study microbiocenosis of any organs and localizations.

Today, the CMS method has proven itself well among gynecologists, reproductologists, urologists, and gastroenterologists, both as an alternative and in combination with traditional examination methods.
