Which Drug Testing Panel is Suitable for You?

Drug testing panels vary based on the number of substances screened. Popular options are 5-panel, 10-panel, and 12-panel tests, however, customized screenings are also available.

Understanding Drug Tests

A drug test analyzes a biological specimen—urine, hair, blood, breath, sweat, or saliva—to detect specific drugs or their metabolites. Its applications include identifying performance-enhancing steroids in sports, employer and legal screenings for banned substances, and alcohol level assessments by law enforcement. Urine testing is predominantly used in workplaces and sporting scenarios, whereas breathalyzers assess BAC levels. Other methods exist with varying accuracy, sensitivity, and detection ranges. Some drug tests quantitatively analyze illegal drugs, promoting safer usage.

Does Passive Smoke Lead to a False Positive for Marijuana?

Passive exposure from others' marijuana smoke is unlikely to produce a false positive as laboratory cut-off levels are typically set beyond those resulting from passive inhalation.

Altered urine screen results may indicate false negatives or intentional sample tampering. For example:

  • A low creatinine level might suggest sample dilution through excess water consumption by the subject or water added to the sample.
  • Creatinine is often assessed with specific gravity to check dilution. Labs may render toilet water blue to deter dilution attempts using toilet water.
  • Subjects attempting to add enzymes to stabilize the sample often alter pH levels, which are also tested.

Drug Retention in Your System

The detection window for a drug test depends on various factors. These include:

  • Quantity of drug consumed
  • Frequency of drug use
  • Type of drug
  • Metabolic rate and overall health
  • Fluid intake after drug use
  • Exercise post-consumption
  • Genetic traits affecting drug metabolism

Local Area Info: Jackson, Tennessee

Jackson is a city in and the county seat of Madison County, Tennessee. Located 70 miles (110 km) east of Memphis, it is a regional center of trade for West Tennessee. Its total population was 65,211 at the 2010 census and 67,265 in the 2012 Census estimate.

Jackson is the primary city of the Jackson, Tennessee metropolitan area, which is included in the Jackson-Humboldt, Tennessee combined statistical area. Jackson is Madison County's largest city, and the second-largest city in West Tennessee next to Memphis. It is home to the Tennessee Supreme Court's courthouse for West Tennessee, as Jackson was the major city in the west when the court was established in 1834.

In the antebellum era, Jackson was the market city for an agricultural area based on cultivation of cotton, the major commodity crop. Beginning in 1851, the city became a hub of railroad systems ultimately connecting to major markets in the north and south, as well as east and west. This was key to its development, attracting trade and many workers on the railroads in the late 19th century with the construction of railroads after the American Civil War. Through the 1960s, the city was served by 15 passenger trains daily, but industry restructuring reduced such service and caused the loss of jobs. The economy has adjusted to new businesses, with major manufacturing in the area.
