The MycoTOX Profile screens for 11 different mycotoxins, from 40 species of mold, in one urine sample.
The MycoTOX Profile is the most comprehensive and competitively priced mycotoxin test available. The MycoTOX profile uses the power of advanced mass spectrometry (MS/MS), which is necessary to detect lower levels of these fungal toxins. This test is optimal for follow-up testing to ensure that detoxification therapies have been successful.
Step 1 –Please write your Name and DOB on a piece of masking tape and use that to label your vial or use a permanent marker.
Step 2 – Limit liquid intake starting at 6pm the night prior to collection. This is to avoid sample dilution. Urine must be yellow in color. If the urine is clear the sample is too diluted. Discard diluted sample, rinse the collection cup with hot water (no soap), air dry, then re-collect.
Step 3 – We recommend freezing your specimen for at least 4-6 hours before shipping the test.
Step 4 – Place cap vial into ziplock specimen bag along with absorbent pad. Seal the bag. Place the specimen bag with the sample vial into the kit box.
Step 5 – Fill out the Test Requisition Form completely. Be sure to write the date of sample collection in the Patient section of the form.
