Chromatography To Identify A Substance

Minnesota rates for HCPCS 82486

A laboratory technique that separates the different substances in a sample so one particular substance can be picked out and identified. The sample is drawn through a separating material and each substance travels at its own rate, spreading them into a pattern the laboratory reads. The result reports whether that substance is present, not how much of it there is.
