For naturopathic, functional and integrative practices
The toxin panel that shows its work.
Seventy-seven analytes from a single at-home urine collection — metals, mycotoxins, plastics, parabens, pesticides, solvent and industrial markers — each reported with its sources, its evidence and the specimen’s limits stated plainly. Built for practices that want the number and the context on the same page.
What one collection covers
The analyte-by-analyte guide77 analytes in 8 groups, from one specimen
- Metals & trace elements 18
- Aluminum through uranium. Urine reflects what’s being cleared now; where blood is the clinical standard — lead, methylmercury — the entry says so.
- Mycotoxins 30
- Aspergillus, Fusarium, Penicillium and Stachybotrys metabolites, including the macrocyclic trichothecenes. Reported with the caveat attached: recent exposure, usually dietary, never a building diagnosis on its own.
- Plastic-related compounds 4
- Bisphenol A glucuronide, bisphenol S and two phthalate markers. Short half-lives and near-universal detection; the finding is a level well above the population.
- Parabens 4
- Methyl, ethyl, propyl and butyl. Potency rises with chain length, so propyl- and butylparaben carry the signal.
- Pesticides & herbicides 8
- Glyphosate, 2,4-D, atrazine and its mercapturate, a pyrethroid marker and three organophosphate metabolites. Read as contact with a class, not a dose of the parent compound.
- Solvent & VOC markers 9
- Hippuric and mercapturic acids for the xylenes, benzene, ethylene and propylene oxide, acrylonitrile and propyl halides, plus an MTBE marker on request. A 24-to-48-hour snapshot.
- Industrial compounds 3
- 4-Nonylphenol, triclosan and diphenyl phosphate: a bioaccumulating surfactant residue, a restricted antimicrobial, and a flame-retardant metabolite carried in house dust.
- Organic acid marker 1
- Tiglylglycine, a functional read on mitochondrial isoleucine metabolism. Non-specific by design, and the one analyte here that isn’t an exposure.
Every analyte, with its sources, evidence and limits, is written up in full at detoxu.com/toxins — the same plain language your patients will see.
Written for the clinician’s read
Detected is not the same as harmful, and the report says so
BPA, methylparaben and deoxynivalenol turn up in nearly everyone surveyed. Each result is framed against where it sits in the population, so a detection isn’t dressed up as a finding and a real outlier isn’t buried in noise. Retesting after an intervention shows whether the number moved — which is where the clinical value is.
The specimen’s limits, stated per analyte
Urine reflects what’s being cleared now, not what’s stored in bone or brain. Where another specimen is the clinical standard — blood lead, blood or hair for methylmercury, the BeLPT for beryllium sensitization — the entry says so, rather than letting a number imply more than it can support.
Unprovoked collection, read as a snapshot where it should be
The panel is designed for an unprovoked at-home collection; provoked or ‘challenge’ results have no valid reference range to be read against. Solvent, phthalate and paraben markers reflect the previous 24 to 48 hours, so patients are asked to note the day before they collect — paint, fragrance, seafood, a hospital stay — and those markers are read in that context.
Mycotoxins, with the caveat attached
No urine mycotoxin test is FDA-approved, and the CDC doesn’t recommend urine testing to diagnose exposure in water-damaged buildings. We measure the compounds and say exactly what a level can and can’t attribute: recent exposure, most often dietary, never a building on its own. It’s the version of a mycotoxin conversation that holds up.
In practice
Requisition
Order the test for a patient and complete the requisition. Testing is cash-pay, so there is no payer billing to manage.
Collection
The patient collects a single urine specimen at home, notes what they did the day before, and returns it to our laboratory in San Diego.
Report
Each analyte comes back with what was found, how much, and how to read it — sources, evidence and the specimen’s limits, in plain language. The patient conversation starts from the same page you’re on.
Demonstration kits
See the process first-hand
Before your practice orders, we’d rather you had held the kit than read about it. New ordering practitioners — and practices that haven’t ordered in the past six months — can request up to two complimentary demonstration kits for education and training: the collection process, the requisition workflow and the result-report format, start to finish, with a member of our team walking it through with you and your staff.
- Education onlyA demonstration kit exists to teach the process. It is not a marketing inducement or a reward for ordering, and it is never positioned as one.
- Never billedA test run from a demonstration kit is not charged to any patient or payer, and each kit carries a barcode marking it for demonstration use only.
- No obligationRequesting one carries no expectation that you will order, and no conversion target or quota sits behind it.
- Not a sales toolDemonstration results are never used to recommend or sell a supplement or any other product.
- Two per practitionerThe cap is per practitioner, not per location. Staff who handle collection or processing can be trained on kits of their own.
- Your judgment, alwaysWhether the test is appropriate for any patient is entirely your independent clinical call.
The laboratory
DetoxU Toxicology Laboratory9265 Activity Road
San Diego, California
Every specimen is analyzed at DetoxU Toxicology Laboratory in San Diego, and every result is reported in the same plain language as the analyte guide.
The DetoxU Toxin Test is a laboratory-developed test. It was developed, and its performance characteristics determined, by DetoxU Toxicology Laboratory; it has not been cleared or approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. That statement appears on every report, including reports from demonstration kits.
Testing is cash-pay. There is no payer billing to manage, and no billing of any kind on a demonstration kit.

A member of the practitioner team will reply by email with pricing, ordering details and next steps — and can arrange a demonstration kit if you would like to see the process first-hand.
- We reply by email with pricing, ordering details and how to get started.
- If you would like, we send a demonstration kit and walk your team through collection, the requisition and the report.
- You decide whether, and for whom, the test is appropriate. There is no obligation at any point.
