First sentence: ICP-MS has been used for many biological applications in the past, including: the quantitation of toxic elements in blood and other body fluids; studying the transpon and destiny of metals in vivo; monitoring the absorption and metabolism of both nutrient metals and metallo-drugs; characterizing metallo-proteins and metal homologues of amino acids and stable isotope tracing (uptake, metabolism, diagnostics).
