Clinical Significance

If the MDMA screen is ≥ 500 ng/mL, the amphetamines confirmation/quantitation by GC-MS is performed at an additional charge.

This test is intended for clinical monitoring and management of patients. It is not intended for non-medical use such as employment or forensic testing.

Specific gravity, pH, creatinine and oxidants will be performed and reported at no additional charge to identify potential adulteration of the urine specimen.
