The donor can refuse to sign such a form without facing any sort of sanction, under the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA).
Genetic testing is also very costly and complicated in process and because of this, coupled with the reinforcement of the GINA Act in 2008, dont expect your employer to produce such a consent form. And in lieu of reinforcement of the Act, nearly all online medical distributorships have since withdrawn the IgG dipstick from the market.
The labs can only test for drug metabolites, creatinine, pH, specific gravity, certain oxidants, the presence of pyridine and glutaraldehyde, and excessive nitirites.

There are many posts throughout the drug testing forum that discuss this issue. The Search button is your friend. :thumbsup:
Thanks for the reply! But, I just wanted to say the test is not with an employer...it is with a court mandated drug counseling group, a condition of my probation. They make me sign like 5 different places when they do a test and always talk about how their tests are so high tek. So, I am worried that they might test for IgG.

Thanks for the advice. And keep it coming.

PS...I searched the internet for hours..and did you the search feature on here, but you can not search for IgG because it is only three characters.
