`IMPORTANT NOTE: A screened positive result is considered presumptive. A small percentage of screen only
positive results will not confirm by an alternative method. Therefore, for the protection of all involved
parties, no punitive action should take place without the donor being afforded the opportunity to have
positive screen result(s) confirmed by GCIMS, GC, or LCfMS/MS.
SERVICES/SUPPLIES INCLUDED
GC/MS & LC/MS/MS Confirmation:
Cordant utilizes GC/MS (Gas Chromatography / Mass Spectrometry) and LC/MS/MS (Liquid
Chromatography double Mass Spectrometry) as our confirmation methods providing the most definitive
and accurate results.
Quantitation:
Included on all GC/MS & LC/MS/MS confirmed positives unless otherwise specified.

Cordant offers a full adulterant test: pH, Oxidants, Specific Gravity and Uric Acid, as requested Creatinine is
automatically run on every urine specimen to ensure validity of the sample.

-eolleetio -into-the-Chain-�ustedy-form. -#All-that-needs-to-be-entered-on the-SEN--T-R��ehai
Custody form by the collector is the client and collector signatures, if the specimen temperature is within
the normal range, and that it was visually observed. The security. seal also needs to be initialed and dated
by the client once it has been placed on the specimen vial. This allows for a faster collection process and
provides a form that is legible and complete, all which support a legally defensible collection.
The SENTRY application allows the COC form to be printed with any basic printer (using 20# paper
with built in security seals that we provide). The SENTRY COC form will print client demographics
including client or Case ID#, selected panel, bar code, time stamp and date on all appropriate areas of the
COC.
