Is there a medical test to show whether Ive been exposed to methyl mercaptan?
Methyl mercaptan is always present in your body. There is a test that can be used to find out if it is present in your blood at levels that are higher than normal. This test requires special equipment and is not usually available in a doctor’s office. It can be done in a special laboratory. However, this test cannot be used to find out how much methyl mercaptan you were exposed to or to predict whether harmful health effects will occur.
