Selecting the Right Drug Testing Panel

Understanding Drug Tests

A drug test involves analyzing a specimen—like urine, hair, blood, breath, or saliva—to detect specified drugs or their metabolites. Uses include testing for banned substances in sports, screenings for legality in employment and probation, and alcohol testing via BAC (Blood Alcohol Content) for law enforcement.

Impact of Passive Smoke on Marijuana Tests

"Passive" marijuana smoke inhalation typically will not result in a false positive, as laboratory cut-off levels are designed to prevent this. False negatives or deliberate tampering, however, could be indicated by certain urine test anomalies.

  • Low creatinine levels may suggest urine dilution, possibly from excessive water intake pre-test or sample tampering.
  • Creatinine and specific gravity levels are assessed to ensure sample integrity. Labs often use blue dye in toilets to discourage tampering.
  • Altering a sample with enzymes can affect pH levels, which are also tested.

Drug Duration in the System

A drug's detection period depends on factors such as dosage, frequency, drug type, metabolism, health, fluid intake, exercise, and genetic factors.

Local Area Info: Burlington, North Carolina

Burlington is a city in Alamance and Guilford counties in the U.S. state of North Carolina. It is the principal city of the Burlington, North Carolina Metropolitan Statistical Area, which encompasses all of Alamance County, in which most of the city is located, and is a part of the Greensboro-Winston-Salem-High Point CSA. The population was 50,042 at the 2010 census, which makes Burlington the 17th largest city in North Carolina. The Metropolitan Statistical Area population was over 150,000 in 2010.

Alamance County was created when Orange County was partitioned in 1849. Early settlers included several groups of Quakers, many of which remain active in the Snow Camp area, German farmers, and Scots-Irish immigrants.

The need of the North Carolina Railroad in the 1850s to locate land where they could build, repair and do maintenance on its track was the genesis of Burlington, North Carolina. The company selected a piece of land slightly west of present-day Graham. On January 29, 1856, the last spikes were driven into the final tie of the North Carolina Railroad project, uniting the cities of Goldsboro and Charlotte by rail. The next day, the first locomotive passed along the new route. When the iron horse arrived in Alamance County, locals referred to it as "the eighth wonder of the world".
