Selecting the Right Drug Testing Panel

Drug screening panels specify the number of drugs tested. Commonly used panels include 5-panel, 10-panel, and 12-panel tests, with customization available to suit specific needs.

Understanding Drug Tests

A drug test analyzes a biological specimen, such as urine, hair, blood, or saliva, to detect parent drugs or their metabolites. Applications include steroid detection in sports, legal and employer screenings, and alcohol content (BAC) assessment via breathalyzer.

Drug tests can also quantitatively analyze illegal drugs, aiding in responsible use.

Passive Smoke Inhalation and False Positives for Marijuana

Inhaling smoke passively is unlikely to cause positive marijuana test results, as laboratory thresholds are set above passive exposure levels.

Other anomalies, like low creatinine, can suggest tampering, such as urine dilution or sample adulteration. Specific gravity checks help identify diluted samples, while pH tests can reveal enzyme tampering.

The Duration of Drugs in the System

Detection windows, influenced by drug type, usage frequency, metabolism, health, and activity level, vary. Fluid intake and exercise can also impact how long drugs remain detectable.

Local Area Info: Lafayette, Louisiana

Lafayette (/?l??fi???t, ?læf-/, French: [lafaj?t]) is a city in and the parish seat of Lafayette Parish, Louisiana, located along the Vermilion River in the southwestern part of the state. The city of Lafayette is the fourth-largest in the state, with a population of 127,657 according to 2015 U.S. Census estimates. It is the principal city of the Lafayette, Louisiana Metropolitan Statistical Area, with a 2015 estimated population of 490,488. The larger trade area or Combined Statistical Area of Lafayette-Opelousas-Morgan City CSA was 627,146 in 2015. Its nickname is The Hub City.

The Attakapas Native Americans inhabited this area at the time of European encounter. French colonists founded the first European settlement, Petit Manchac, a trading post along the Vermilion River. In the late eighteenth century, numerous Acadian refugees settled in this area, after being expelled from Canada after Great Britain defeated France in the Seven Years' War. They intermarried with other settlers, forming what is known as Cajun culture, which continued as strongly French language and Catholic religion.

Jean Mouton, of Acadian descent, donated land to the Catholic church for construction of a small Catholic chapel at this site. In 1824 this area was selected for the Lafayette Parish seat and known as Vermilionville, for its location on the river. In 1836 the Louisiana Legislature granted it incorporation.
