SteroidConfirm - Steroid Abuse Urine Test Kit (50 Panel Steroid Testing)

HOW DOES THE TEST WORK?
SteroidConfirm enables sports trainers, employers and parents to test individuals who they suspect may be abusing steroids. Simply take a urine specimen at home, in the workplace or at school, and mail to our laboratory using the pre-paid shipping pak. You have the option to perform a confidential test (no personal information is required) ora test with a Chain of Custody*. 

CONVENIENT COLLECTION KIT
Our collection kit is designed for convenient use at home, school or in the workplace and collection of the urine sample takes only a few minutes. There is no special training required for sample collection, however we do advice that you ready the instructions thoroughly before you begin the test. We are available from 8.00am - 5.00pm PST Monday thru Friday to answer your questions. 

INNOVATION SPECIMEN COLLECTOR DESIGN
The urine collection device is as innovative as our testing process. A syringe within a sealable tube minimizes accidental spills or specimens destroyed in transport. This design provides ample volume of specimen for the lab and is less bulky than urine transport cups.

ACCURATE LAB TECHNOLOGY 
Using Liquid Chromatograph Tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC/MS/MS), the most sophisticated and sensitive technology available for the steroid testing community, STEROIDCONFIRM can accurately quantify substances well below the cut-off levels. Each specimen is tested directly with this instrument - there is no screening process.

The added benefit of Tandem Mass Spectrometry (MS/MS) is the unsuppressed selectivity achieved by incorporating a collision cell. The LC/MS/MS system not only measures each compound directly, but it also breaks apart the compounds in the collision cell to give a second parameter of identification for each compound. This
methodology provides highly accurate results.

SteroidConfirm can detect a wide variety of illegal substances from the urine samples and makes cheating impossible for the participant. The innovative design of the sample collection device makes it easy to collect as well as allowing you to send the samples through the mail without damage or spilling of the sample ensuring the accuracy of the tests. The huge range of substances that it can detect and the high clarity and readability of the result reports differentiate this test from the multitude of cheaper steroid tests swarming the market today.

EASY TO READ LABORATORY REPORT
Our laboratory report shows the complete listing of steroids which have been tested for and provides an absent or positive result for each agent, except for Epitestosterone (E) and Testosterone (T) which occur naturally in the body. We will provide you with a T/E ratio if both are present over the concentration limit. Click here for a sample report

MEDICAL REVIEW OFFICER'S REPORT
An essential part of the steroid test is the final review of results. A positive laboratory test result does not automatically identify an individual as an illegal steroid user. An individual with a detailed knowledge of possible alternative medical explanations is essential to the review of results. The Medical Review Officer (MRO) fulfills this function by reviewing the results with the donor and protecting the confidential nature of the donor's medical information.

The MRO reviewed all professional test results.

CERTIFICATIONS INCLUDE:
- AAB American Association of Bioanalysists
- CLIA Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments
- Heavy Metals Institute
- DEA Licensed (To ensure all State and Federal standards for USP NF (797) Pain Drug (CSP) are followed.)

The CLIA Accredited Laboratory uses state-of-the-art Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) with Mass Spectrometry X2 (LC/MS/MS) technology to determine the amount of lead present.

DETECTION TIME FRAME
The window of detection for steroids varies drastically. At the low end of the spectrum the window is only 2-3 days. On the high end, a couple of months. Steroids, similar to THC, are not water soluble. With testosterone, because it occurs naturally you will almost always detect the hormone. It is necessary to test for testosterone because the body adjusts natural production of the hormone when it is introduced to synthetic steroids, i.e. the levels of testosterone are usually off kilter. Please see half lives of the steroid test at the following link (www.steroidconfirm.com/Steroid_Half-Lives.pdf ). Half lives show how long the detection period for the steroid testing kit would be. 

Steroid Confirm also detects metabolite Methandrostenolone (Dianabol)

It is important that the collector get the specimen to the lab as soon as possible. Degradation is possible. The specimen must be shipped within 5 days of collection (sooner the better). If it is difficult to ship right after the collection process is complete, the specimen needs to be refrigerated rather than stored at room temperature.
