LABORATORY ANALYSIS/REPORTING RESULTS
Urine samples will be collected and sent to an independent SAMHSA (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration) and/or World Anti-Doping Agency approved laboratory for analysis. Ottawa University hereby certifies that any laboratory it engages for the testing of performance enhancing drugs/anabolic agents will abide by the World Anti-Doping Agency code of ethics as it relates to the testing of samples. Each sample will be tested in accordance with this policy to determine if banned drugs or substances are present and the appropriate sanctions will apply for positive results.
If the laboratory reports a specimen as substituted, manipulated or adulterated, the student-athlete will be deemed to have refused to submit to testing and treated as if the test were positive for a banned substance.
