From: Clinical biochemistry discussion list [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of GIFFORD BATSTONE Sent: 14 October 2013 18:36 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: Cobalt and chromium The new National Laboratory Medicine Catalogue uses nmol/L and ISO 15189 requires the use of SI Units - so no problem! Gifford Dr Gifford Batstone MBBS, BSc, FRCPath, MSc Tel 01962 860761 Mob 0791 285 9344 From: Myers Martin (LTHTR) <[log in to unmask]> To: [log in to unmask] Sent: Monday, 14 October 2013, 16:07 Subject: Cobalt and chromium I know that this was debated a few years ago on the mail base but like an old penny (copper and tin) it keeps coming back. For cobalt and chromium analysis in patients with MoM hip replacements: Are labs measuring these in serum, plasma or whole blood? Are labs reporting in the quaint old units of ppb which MHRA recommend or in nmol/L which most biochemists on the planet would probably prefer?
