Abstract: | A series of five experiments were undertaken using several brands of fingernail and toenail clippers to determine if there was a potential source of contamination and interference in the ongoing dietary studies using nails from large cohort groups. A cleanup protocol was deemed sufficient to remove possible contamination. |
