Choosing the Right Drug Testing Panel

Tests are categorized into panels, representing the number of drugs screened. Common options are 5, 10, or 12-panel tests, with customizable configurations available.

Understanding Drug Testing

A drug test analyzes a biological specimen - such as urine, hair, blood, breath, or saliva - to detect specific drugs or their metabolites. Applications include checking for performance-enhancing steroids in sports, employer screenings for prohibited substances, and police testing for blood alcohol content (BAC) through breathalyzers. While urinalysis is prevalent for workplace and sports testing, various other methods exist with different accuracy, sensitivity, and detection periods.

Does Passive Smoke Cause False Marijuana Positives?

"Passive" smoke inhalation from marijuana in a shared space is not considered valid. Cut-off levels in lab analyses are set high enough to rule out contamination by passive inhalation.

Abnormalities in urine tests can indicate false negatives or sample tampering, including:

• Low creatinine levels suggesting sample dilution, by excess water intake or sample tampering.
• Creatinine and specific gravity levels together verify sample integrity. To avoid dilution issues, lab water may be colored blue.
• Attempts to introduce enzymes into samples can alter pH, which is also measured.

Drug Duration in the System

Drug detection windows vary based on several factors, such as:

• Amount consumed
• Frequency of use
• Type of drug
• Individual metabolic rate and health
• Fluid intake post-consumption
• Physical activity post-consumption
• Genetic variations affecting drug response
