Isocyanates Profile Blood Test

* This is not a home test kit. You will need to visit a local lab for testing.

The Purpose of an Isocyanate Blood Test

Isocyanates are used to manufacture a variety of materials, including plastics, polyurethane, foams, and electrical wire insulation. These chemicals are also found in paints, protective finishes, adhesives, and elastomers in automobile bumpers, coated fabrics, and printing rolls.

You can be exposed to isocyanates in these substances at any stage, from production to use and handling. Chronic overexposure may lead to chemical bronchitis, with initial symptoms of throat irritation, laryngitis, coughing, and chest pain or tightness. Asthma (with symptoms of wheezing, coughing, and shortness of breath) is another potential complication of isocyanate overexposure.

Other related health issues include hypersensitivity pneumonitis, chronic pulmonary disease, and contact dermatitis (following direct skin contact). Isocyanate exposure testing can help monitor your levels and determine if you need treatment for any resulting medical conditions.
