Hair analysis. Proven and problematic applications.

D J Fletcher.   

Abstract

Hair analysis has important uses in screening for metal intoxication and exposure to environmental pollutants, as well as applications in forensic medicine. In addition, hair analysis has been hailed as the new "in" tool for diagnosis of nutritional deficiencies and chronic diseases, but data to support these applications are fragmentary at best.
