What Drug Testing Panel Suits Your Needs?

Drug test screening groups, known as drug testing panels, typically consist of 5, 10, or 12-panel tests, which determine the number of drugs to be screened. Custom panels are also available.

Understanding Drug Testing

A drug test conducts a technical analysis of biological specimens like urine, hair, blood, breath, sweat, or saliva to detect the presence of specific drugs or their metabolites. It is crucial for detecting performance-enhancing steroid use in sports, screening prohibited substances by employers and legal entities, and checking alcohol levels by law enforcement. A breathalyzer often measures BAC, while urinalysis is the standard method for sports and workplace testing. Other methods vary by accuracy, sensitivity, and detection duration. Drug tests may also include chemical analyses to inform responsible drug use.

Does Passive Smoke Inhalation Lead to a False Positive for Marijuana?

The effect of "passive" marijuana smoke inhalation is not generally deemed significant for lab analyses, as cut-off concentrations are set beyond levels detected from passive exposure.

Irregularities in urine samples may signal false negatives or intentional tampering, as seen in:

• Low creatinine levels, indicating dilution from excessive water intake or water added to the sample.
• Creatinine levels, in combination with specific gravity, ensure samples haven't been diluted. To prevent tampering, testing facilities may color toilet water blue.
• Attempts to add enzymes altering the stability of samples often change pH levels, which are also tested.

How Long Do Drugs Remain Detectable?

The detection window or look-back period in drug tests varies based on several factors including:

• The amount of drug used
• Frequency of drug use
• Type of drug
• Individual metabolic rate and overall health
• Fluid intake following drug use
• Physical activity following drug use
• Genetic factors affecting drug processing
