Procedures for testing urine specimens dried on filter paper.
METHOD for collection of urine from infants onto squares of filter paper was described as part of a program for early detection of phenylketonuria (1). These urine papers have proved extremely versatile as an aid to testing urine for a number of substances that are excreted as a result of certain metabolic defects, all easily detectable by simple means. Phenylpyruvic acid, phenylalanine, and oh...
متن کاملCEDIA dau Benzodiazepine screening assay: a reformulation.
The CEDIA dau Benzodiazepine assay has been reformulated to include online hydrolysis of urinary benzodiazepine glucuronide conjugates. The new antibody possesses enhanced cross-reactivities toward the low-dose benzodiazepines, which are excreted at low urinary drug-metabolite concentrations. The screening method was evaluated using lorazepam as the probe benzodiazepine. Four subjects each cons...
متن کاملInflated, dried whole lung specimens.
A method is described for preparing fully-inflated whole lung specimens that are suitable for instruction or research purposes. Undamaged lungs are removed from the body and then tracheally cannulated and lavaged with tap water more than 250 times. The treatment also includes rinsing blood from vessels with water. A final filling of the lung with alcohol is optional. The multiply rinsed lung is...
متن کاملHormone Metabolites in Dried Urine
Steroid hormones are low molecular weight, lipid-like molecules that are synthesized from cholesterol mostly in specialized glands such as the adrenals, ovaries, and testes. Once synthesized, these steroids are released into the bloodstream where they enter target tissues/cells and bind to specific hormone receptors. There, the hormone-receptor complex activates specific gene sites and stimulat...
متن کاملEfficacy of a polyethylene glycol marker system in urine drug screening in an opiate substitution program.
AIMS Screening for concomitant drug consumption is necessary in opiate substitution therapy of opiate-dependent patients. Adulteration of samples is a common problem in this setting. A recently developed polyethylene glycol marker system allows reliable identification of urine samples. In this study, we aimed to compare the rates of drug detection in conventional and marker urine samples. DES...
