Navarro Test

[Guest guest]

I have found some information about the Navarro Test and a place in the US that

performs the same test that I wanted to share.

Obtaining a HCG Test

Two companies offer this test: Navarro Medical Clinic in Manila, Philippines and

American Metabolic Testing, Hollywood, Florida. Both charge about $60.

American Metabolic Testing

Tests for all molecular species of the HCG hormone. However, no test exists

for the ALPHA subunit of HCG. This may be the reason for the ocational negative

test result in an established cancer patient. Two different, super-sensitive

testes are used, where one will confirm the other. They claim that, " No other

laboratory performs these tests at the sensitivity level that we do. Therefore,

do-it yourself pregnancy tests, commercial lab reports, and the Navarro test do

not accurately report normals below 5.0mIU/mL. Most cancer patients have HCG

levels between 1 and 5. Our cut-off point is less than 1.0 and the sensitivity

of our immunoradiometric assay (IRMA) is 0.03 mIU/mL. Normal levels are less

than 1.0 (less than 1.0 for the super-sensitive IRMA test, and less than 1.1 for

the second Bioluminescent test.) "
