Evaluation for arsenic toxicity requires a detailed history including environmental and occupational exposure history physical examination and laboratory testing. For recent and chronic exposure the 24-hour urine collection for arsenic is the most useful laboratory test. Organic arsenic from recent seafood ingestion last 48 hours may produce a positive urine test for total arsenic.
