ABOUT THE Mycotox Profile

The Mycotox Profile is a urine test to assess a patient’s mould exposure by assessing mycotoxins (metabolites produced by fungi which can infest buildings, vehicles and food). The test screens for eleven different mycotoxins from 40 species of mould in one urine sample. Using the power of advanced mass spectrometry (MS/MS) the Mycotox Profile can detect lower levels of fungal toxins, and so is optimal for follow-up testing to ensure that detoxification therapies have been successful.

Important!

Not following the instructions will result in sample rejection and your sample will need to be recollected.

  • Ensure hand writing is legible and forms are completed in full
  • Make sure patient name is written on the collection container/s
  • Names written on collection container labels must match names written on the form (e.g. abbreviations, middle names and initials) must be identical in all fields
  • Please ensure sample is tightly closed; if the sample leaks in transit it will need to be resubmitted
  • Please ensure correct amount of sample is collected as per instructions (no more or less than as requested)

Testing Notes

  • Sample should be collected mid-stream from your first morning urine void before eating or drinking
  • You must have been asleep for at least 6 hours before completing the sample OR if this cannot be achieved, 4 hours is the minimum
  • You may wake up during the night but should not get out of bed. You may toss and turn but when you get out of bed, that is when the sample must be taken
  • Freeze sample immediately after collection
  • Sample must be frozen for at least 4 hours before sending. It may be stored in the freezer for up to a week to be posted on the following Monday
  • It is best to complete the sample over the weekend so it can be posted on a Monday
  • If you take any medications please discuss this with your practitioner prior to testing
  • Any non-essential medicines (such as magnesium, fish oil, etc) need to be ceased 2 days prior to sample collection. This is important as they could affect your results. You may need to discuss this with your practitioner.
  • If you have collected and need to recollect, you can empty the sample, rinse with warm water and air dry, ready to complete again the following morning
  • If menstruating, avoid contamination of sample as this may interfere with test results. You may need to wait before collecting. Samples that are visibly contaminated with blood (red, pink, or brown in colour) will be rejected and a new sample requested
  • There is a Paediatric Kit available for children who are not toilet trained. We will send a kit if your practitioner requests one
