Accredited Drug Testing offers various testing methods to suit client requirements. Urine testing is favored for its 1 to 5-day detection range and is commonly used by workplaces, courts, and schools. Meanwhile, hair testing is gaining popularity due to its approximately 90-day detection duration.

Choosing the Right Drug Testing Panel

Drug tests are often classified into panels, which indicate the number of substances being screened. The most common are 5-panel, 10-panel, and 12-panel tests, with customizable options available.

Understanding Drug Testing

A drug test involves analyzing a biological specimen, such as urine, hair, blood, breath, sweat, or oral fluid, to detect certain drugs or their metabolites. Common uses include identifying performance-enhancing steroids in sports, employer checks for illegal substances, and police assessments of alcohol levels via BAC tests. Various methods exist with different accuracy, sensitivity, and detection durations.

Passive Smoke and Marijuana False Positives

Exposure to marijuana smoke in a shared space typically doesn't result in a false positive. Laboratory cut-off levels ensure passive inhalation is not mistakenly identified as active use.

Abnormal urine sample results, such as low creatinine levels, may indicate dilution or tampering. Testing facilities may use colored water in toilets to discourage sample tampering.

• Low creatinine can suggest intentional dilution by drinking excessive water or adding water to the sample.
• Creatinine levels alongside specific gravity help determine sample validity. Blue toilet dye prevents water from diluting samples.
• Attempts to alter the sample with enzymes may result in pH changes, which are also monitored.

Drug Residue Duration in the Body

The detection window for drugs depends on multiple factors:

• Quantity of drug used
• Frequency of drug consumption
• Drug type
• Metabolic rate and overall health
• Fluid intake since drug use
• Exercise post-consumption
• Specific genetic responses to drugs
