A urine element analysis profile, also known as a urine toxic exposure panel (CUEP), measures the amount of toxic metals and nutrients in your urine. This test can help identify toxic metal exposure.
How it’s performed
A urine sample is collected after taking a dose of DMSA, a substance that helps metals be excreted in urine.
The sample is then analyzed to measure the levels of various elements.
What it measures
The levels of many elements, including aluminum, arsenic, cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, mercury, and zinc
Why it’s important
Toxic metals can get stuck in body tissues, but DMSA helps them be excreted in urine. This makes the urine element analysis profile a reliable way to measure toxic metal exposure.
Other urine tests
A urinalysis can also check the appearance, concentration, and pH of urine.
A urinalysis can also detect red blood cells, white blood cells, proteins, glucose, and other substances.

Urine analysis is one of the most useful laboratory tests as it identifies a wide range of medical conditions including renal damage, urinary tract infections, diabetes, hypertension and drug toxicity.This assay is performed on urine sediment by a chemical analyser that is able to detect urine particles in the sediment with high accuracy. This instrument performs sample preparation, takes several images of each sample through its built-in microscope & evaluates them using Auto Image Evaluation Module (AIEM), which is a high quality image processing software. This is a reliable, standardised automatic method for identification of urine sediment & chemical analysis.

This assay is useful for diagnosing Vitamin A deficiency & toxicity and for monitoring therapy. It evaluates persons with intestinal malabsorption of lipids. Vitamin A deficiency can lead to blindness whereas chronic intoxication can affect several organs. Known HIV positive patients with Vitamin A deficiency show increased disease progression and mortality.

Vitamin B12 is necessary for hematopoiesis and normal neuronal function. B12 deficiency may be due to lack of intrinsic factor secretion by gastric mucosa (gastrectomy, gastric atrophy) or intestinal malabsorption (ileal resection, small intestinal diseases) leading to Macrocytic anemia. This assay is useful for investigating Macrocytic anemia and as a workup of deficiencies seen in Megaloblastic anemia.

Vitamin B1 (Thiamine) is an essential vitamin required for carbohydrate metabolism. It is converted in the intestine to Thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP) which is the active form of Vitamin B1. The high risk factors for thiamine deficiency include old age, long term parenteral nutrition, hemodialysis, malabsorption or alcohol abuse. Severe deficiency causes congestive heart failure (wet beriberi), peripheral neuropathy (dry beriberi), Wernicke encephalopathy (a medical emergency that can progress to coma and death), and Korsakoff syndrome (often irreversible memory loss and dementia that can follow).

Vitamin B2 is a component of water-soluble Vitamin B complex and is crucial for metabolism and energy production through oxidative phosphorylation. People at higher risk of developing Vitamin B2 deficiency include 1) Vegetarians who consume no/ little milk 2) Pregnant and lactating women and their infants 3) Person with chronic diarrhoea or malabsorption 4) Chronic alcoholics and 5) Infants with rare inborn error of Riboflavin transporter disorder.

Niacin (also known as vitamin B3) is one of the water-soluble B vitamins. Niacin is the generic name for nicotinic acid (pyridine-3-carboxylic acid), nicotinamide (niacinamide or pyridine-3-carboxamide), and related derivatives, such as nicotinamide riboside [1-3].

Neurotropic B group vitamins play crucial roles as coenzymes in the nervous system. Particularly Vitamin B1 (Thiamine), Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine) & Vitamin B12 (Cobalamin) contribute essentially to the maintenance of a healthy nervous system. Vitamin B1 acts as a site-directed antioxidant; Vitamin B6 balances nerve metabolism; Vitamin B12 maintains myelin sheaths.Their importance is highlighted by many neurological diseases related to deficiencies in one or more of these vitamins. Deficiencies of these vitamins can occur mainly in elderly individuals, diabetics, alcoholics, dialysis patients, patients with gastrointestinal diseases etc. and may lead to neurological disturbances e.g. Peripheral neuropathy. On the other hand neurological adverse effects like ataxia, sensory neuropathy etc. have been demonstrated with long-term or high dose use of these vitamins specially Vitamin B6.

Serum folate concentrations are affected by diet whereas RBC folate is a more reliable indicator of folate status. This assay is useful for identification of folate deficiency when serum folate is normal but there is a high clinical suspicion of nutritional deficiency. It is used in the evaluation of individuals with low serum levels of both folate and iron.
