Choose Between Urine or Hair Drug Testing Methods in Pittsburg, CA

Accredited Drug Testing offers various testing methods based on customer needs. Urine testing, with a detection period ranging from 1 to 5 days, is the most prevalent method used by employers, legal systems, and educational institutions. However, due to its extended detection period of about 90 days, hair drug and alcohol testing is increasingly popular.

What are the Most Common Urine and Hair Drug Tests?

Both the 5-panel urine and 5-panel hair drug tests screen for the same drugs, but they have different detection periods. A urine test looks back 1-5 days, while a hair test can trace up to 90 days from the sample collection date.

Selecting the Correct Drug Testing Panel

Drug testing panels refer to the grouping of drugs screened in a test, such as the widely used 5-panel, 10-panel, and 12-panel tests. Customized screenings can also be tailored to specific needs.

Understanding Drug Tests

Drug tests analyze biological samples, like urine, hair, blood, breath, sweat, and saliva, to detect specific parent drugs or their metabolites. These tests are crucial in identifying performance-enhancing drug use in sports, illicit drugs monitored by employers or legal authorities, and alcohol content checks in law enforcement. Breathalyzers and urinalysis are common methods, but other techniques vary in precision and detection periods. A drug test may also perform quantitative analysis of an illegal drug to assist in responsible drug use.

Impact of Passive Smoke Inhalation on Marijuana Test Results

"Passive" inhalation from secondhand smoke in a marijuana-smoking environment doesn't typically result in a false positive, as laboratory thresholds exceed any trace that might arise from passive exposure.

Abnormalities in test results may signify a false negative or tampering with the sample. For example:

• Low creatinine levels suggest potential tampering or dilution, either by excessive water intake before testing or water being added directly to the sample.
• Creatinine and specific gravity can detect diluted samples. Testing centers may use blue-tinted water in toilets to prevent sample dilution.
• Attempting to alter urine stability by adding enzymes often affects pH, which is also examined.

Drug Retention Time in the Body

Several factors affect the detection window, or look-back period, of a drug test. These include:

• Amount of drug consumed
• Frequency of drug use
• Type of drug
• Individual’s metabolic rate and overall health
• Fluid intake post-drug use
• Physical activity post-drug use
• Genetic factors impacting drug response
