They can also detect the metabolites which are produced when the illegal substance enters the body. The test though is only as good as the antibodies that are employed as they could ending up bonding to some other body that is not an illegal substance, but still producing a negative test result.<\/p>\n<p>This would be a rare occurrence, through. This would be what is called a false positive result. Immunoassay has produced false positives with some decongestants and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Therefore, if you know immunoassay is being used to test your sample, avoid these two classes of drugs prior to the event.<\/p>\n<p>Types of Immunoassay: The two preferred IA techniques used today are Radio immunoassay (RIA) and fluorescence polarization immunoassay (FPIA). RIA is administered in detecting certain 17-alpha-methyl, 17-alpha ethyl, and 19-nortesterone anabolic steroids. The enzyme Multiplied immunoassay technique (EMIT) is the best performer; so if you aren&#8217;t certain which of the tests will be used, then concentrate on beating EMIT. If you fail the EMIT test, then you will probably be given the very sensitive GC\/MS test, just as confirmation.<\/p>\n<p>PharmChek: This is a plaster like patch which you will have to wear for just over a week and whose function is to absorb your sweat and then detect any possible illegal substances that may have been in your body. The patch itself is tamper-proof and the actual accuracy of the results found is actually unknown at this moment in time.<\/p>\n<p>TestCup: There isn&#8217;t much known about this test either, but it basically involves a specially designed cup which is used to take urine samples. It possesses an indicator which will change colour depending on which substances are found present.<\/p>\n<p>Cheating the Most common Test -the EMIT: This consists of knowing which test is going to be used for which drug in your next event. If you know the time that the drug will no longer be detectable for the relevant test after coming off it, you can just imply that time-scale on coming off the drug before the event. Quite simple really.<\/p>\n<p>Several drugs detection times;- Drug Approx. Detection time in urine using EMI Amphetamines between 2 and 4 days, Clenbuterol between 2 and 4 days &#8211; detectable at 0.5ng\/ml by GC\/MS Nicotine. There is no reliable data but Quite a while as nicotine is a fat soluble. Peptide hormones (like insulin, g\/hormone and IGF-1) and non detectable Anabolic steroids Oral steroids about 2 weeks and Injectable about 1 month.<\/p>\n<p>Important Note 1: These drugs are their clearance times are only rough estimates, although reasonably accurate ones, but the real time can vary on each individual according to the time it takes their system to expel the drugs.<\/p>\n<p>Important Note 2: Another test for steroids is by GC\/MS, HPLC and RIA and not forgetting EMIT. If you want to pass a GC\/MS or HPLC test allow yourself more time for your body to get the drug out of your system than you would in an EMIT test. Each drug can be tested for by GC\/MS but you must remember that the drug clearance times are a lot different from person to person.<\/p>\n<p>Important Notes 3\/4 for THE DREADED DECA: This steroid can still be detected in the body up to 18 months after your last shot. The good new is that there is no known test for the use of growth hormone or insulin, so you can go on using it right up till the same day of the event without getting caught.<\/p>\n<p>There are ways to speed up the removal of steroids that are present in your body and let&#8217;s say it&#8217;s nothing new. All you have to do is train harder with weights which will increase your metabolism rate and if it is fatty soluble drugs that need getting rid of, then you should concentrate on aerobic type exercises as this will help break down you fatty stores, releasing the stored drugs.<\/p>\n<p>You should also try and take on more calories by introducing additional daily meals to increase your metabolism and drug clearance rate. The correct method will all depend on the drugs you have taken and what you really want to achieve at your next event.
