VMA | Test | VMA | Vanillylmandelic Acid (VMA), 24 Hour, [NAME] | Vanillylmandelic Acid, 24 Hr, U | Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) | [NAME], 24-hour graduated: 24Urine |  |  | 5 | mL | Container/Tube: Plastic, 10-mL urine tube (Supply T068) [NAME]: 5.2 mL Collection Instructions:  1. Collect a 24-hour urine specimen. 2. Add 25 mL of 50% acetic acid as preservative at the start of collection. If specimen is refrigerated during collection, preservative may be added up to 4 hours after collection. Use 15 mL of 50% acetic acid for children <5 years old. This preservative is intended to achieve a pH of between approximately 1 and 5. If necessary, adjust urine pH to 1 to 5 with 50% acetic or HCl acid. Additional Information:  1. Patient's age and 24-hour volume are required. 2. Administration of L-dopa may falsely-increase vanillylmandelic acid results; it should be discontinued 24 hours prior to and during collection of specimen. 3. See [NAME] in Special Instructions for multiple collections.   Urine Preservative Collection Options Ambient	No Refrigerated	No Frozen	No 6N HCl	Yes 50% Acetic Acid	Preferred Na2CO3	No Toluene	No 6N HNO3	Yes Boric Acid	Yes* (pH must be <5) Thymol	No *If boric acid is used, note on specimen container. Also, verify that pH is in desired range (pH=1-5). If pH is outside of desired range, adjust pH with a stronger acid (acetic acid is preferred but other acids listed above could be used if available) in a dropwise fashion to bring pH into desired range. | 3.5 mL | Hemolysis	NA Thawing	Warm reject; Cold OK Lipemia	NA Icterus	NA Other	NA | <1 year: <27.0 mg/g creatinine 1 year: <18.0 mg/g creatinine 2-4 years: <13.0 mg/g creatinine 5-9 years: <8.5 mg/g creatinine 10-14 years: <7.0 mg/g creatinine > or =15 years (adults): <8.0 mg/24 hours | Monday through Saturday; 8 a.m. | 2 days (not reported on Sunday) | 4 days | 1 | 84585 |  |  |  |  | Rochester
