Choosing the Right Drug Testing Panel

Drug screening groups are often called panels. Commonly utilized panels include 5-panel, 10-panel, and 12-panel tests, specifying the number of drugs screened. Custom screening options are also available.

Understanding Drug Tests

A drug test involves technical analysis of biological specimens—such as urine, hair, blood, or saliva—to identify the presence or absence of specific drugs or their byproducts. Applications include detecting performance-enhancing steroids in sports, drug screening by employers or parole officers, and blood alcohol content (BAC) testing by law enforcement. Traditionally, BAC is measured using a breathalyzer, while urinalysis dominates workplace and sports drug testing. Various methods exist with differing accuracy, sensitivity, and detection periods. Drug testing can also involve quantitative chemical analysis of illegal drugs, supporting responsible usage.

Can Passive Smoke Inhalation Result in a False Positive for Marijuana?

"Passive" marijuana smoke inhalation in a smoking environment is unlikely to cause a false positive since lab analysis cut-off levels exceed what passive exposure would generate.

Other urine test irregularities can indicate tampering, such as:

• Low creatinine levels, suggesting sample dilution through excessive water intake or added water.
• Creatinine levels and specific gravity checks help detect dilution. Labs may use blue water in toilets to prevent sample dilution with toilet water.
• Adding certain enzymes may affect sample stability but often alters pH, also tested by labs.

Duration of Drug Presence in the System

The detection window, or look-back period, depends on diverse factors, including:

• Amount of drug taken
• Frequency of drug use
• Type of drug consumed
• Individual metabolic rate and health
• Fluids intake since drug consumption
• Exercise post-drug intake
• Genetic variations affecting drug response
