Research Support...
The CEL is one of the few laboratories in the country to offer expertise in such a
broad range of endocrine testing for both adult and pediatric based clinical research.
Especially noteworthy is our ability to provide urine gonadotropin testing which
incorporates the pulsatility of gonadotropin excretion for proper result interpretation in
normal children and those with suspected gonadal disorders. The CEL has expertise in the
measurement of blood and urine prostaglandins and leukotrienes for clinical diagnostic and
investigative purposes. Additionally, the CEL performs steroid biochemistry including the
analysis of over 20 esoteric steroids such as estrone, estrone sulfate, and 17
OH-progesterone. The CEL has provided clinical research testing support in the last 15
years to over three dozen universities, hospitals, clinics and institutes throughout the
United States, Canada and Europe.
