Selecting the Appropriate Drug Testing Panel

Drug tests are categorized by panels which indicate the number of drugs screened. Common panels include 5, 10, and 12-panel tests, with options for customized screenings.

Understanding Drug Tests

Drug tests involve analyzing a specimen—urine, hair, blood, breath, sweat, or saliva—to check for specific substances or their metabolites. These tests apply to sports, legal compliance, and workplace scenarios, among others. Methods vary in accuracy and detection periods, with urinalysis prevalent for sports and employment testing.

Can Passive Smoke Cause False Positives?

"Passive" exposure to marijuana smoke is unlikely to result in a positive test, as laboratory thresholds for analysis are established to avoid such incidents.

Irregularities in urine tests might suggest a false negative or sample tampering. For instance:

• Low creatinine levels may suggest intentional dilution through excess water intake or sample adulteration.
• Creatinine and specific gravity levels are cross-referenced to detect dilution, with preventive measures employed during the testing process.
• Introducing enzymes to alter stability can change the sample's pH, which is monitored during analysis.

Drug Detection Timelines

Detection periods for drugs vary based on factors such as dosage, frequency, type, metabolism, fluid intake, exercise, and genetic differences.
