Can I do a 6-hour or 24-hour urine collection?

Yes, however, Vibrant recommends collecting the first morning void for urine tests.

Vibrant does not necessitate a 6-hour or 24-hour urine collection for the Mycotoxins, Heavy Metals, Environmental Toxins, PFAS Chemicals, or OAT tests. 

Should a 6-hour or 24-hour urine collection be preferred, please adhere to the following guidelines:

  • 6-hour and 24-hour urine collection containers are not supplied.
  • The collection container must be sterile and metal-free (e.g., Medline 24-Hour Urine Collection Bottle).
  • Collect every urine specimen using the aforementioned collection container over the specified time period.
  • Shake to homogenize.
  • Pipette urine from the collection container into the 15 mL specimen tube provided.
