Choose Between Urine or Hair Drug Testing in Mesquite, TX

Accredited Drug Testing offers various testing methods tailored to our clients' requirements. Urine testing, with a detection window of 1 to 5 days, is the preferred choice for many employers, courts, and schools. However, hair testing is gaining popularity due to its extended detection period of approximately 90 days.

Urine and Hair Drug Tests: What’s the Difference?

Both 5-panel urine and 5-panel hair drug tests screen for similar substances, but their detection periods differ significantly. Urine tests provide a look-back period of 1-5 days, whereas hair tests can detect drug use up to 90 days post-sample collection.

Choosing the Right Drug Testing Panel

Drug testing panels categorize screening groups, with common ones being 5-panel, 10-panel, and 12-panel tests (denoting the number of drugs screened). Customized screenings are also an option.

Understanding Drug Tests

A drug test involves the analysis of a biological specimen—such as urine, hair, blood, breath, sweat, or saliva—to identify the presence or absence of specific drugs or their metabolites. Drug tests detect performance-enhancing steroids in sports, screen for prohibited substances for employers or legal officers, and measure blood alcohol levels (BAC) for law enforcement. BAC tests typically use a breathalyzer, while urinalysis is extensively applied in workplace and sports settings. Various methods exist with differing accuracy, sensitivity (detection threshold/cutoff), and detection durations. Additionally, a drug test may quantify the chemical content of an illegal drug, typically to promote safe consumption practices.

Passive Smoke Inhalation and Marijuana Drug Tests

Inhaling "passive" smoke in an environment where marijuana is smoked generally does not lead to a positive test result, as laboratory cut-off levels are set significantly higher than exposures from passive inhalation.

Irregularities in urine screens can suggest false negatives or sample tampering. Examples include:

• Low creatinine levels might indicate sample tampering, such as excessive water consumption before testing or urine dilution.
• Testing labs may color toilet water blue to prevent sample dilution with tap water during sample collection.
• Sample alteration with enzymes might affect stability, altering the specimen's pH and leading to detection.

Drug Metabolism: How Long Do Drugs Stay in Your System?

The detection window or look-back period of drug tests can vary greatly. Factors affecting drug duration in your system include:

• Dosage amount
• Usage frequency
• Type of drug
• Individual metabolic rate and overall health
• Fluid intake following drug use
• Physical activity since drug intake
• Genetic factors influencing drug responses
