Rockford traces its roots to 1834, as the combined settlements of Midway were founded on both banks of the Rock River. On the west bank, Germanicus Kent and Thatcher Blake (with his slave Lewis Lemon) founded Kentville; the east bank was settled by Daniel Shaw Haight. With the location of the Rock River equidistant between Lake Michigan and the Mississippi River, the combined settlement derived the name "Midway". In 1836, Winnebago County was created (from both Jo Daviess and LaSalle counties), with Midway named as its county seat.

Choosing the Right Drug Testing Panel

A drug testing panel indicates the substances screened, with common panels being 5, 10, and 12 drugs, but customized options are available too.

Understanding Drug Tests

A drug test analyzes a biological sample such as urine, hair, blood, breath, sweat, or oral fluid/saliva to check for specific drugs or their metabolites. They’re typically used by employers or legal authorities for compliance and safety. Tests may be qualitative, assessing the presence of substances, or quantitative for measuring the amount of a drug or substance.

Does Passive Marijuana Smoke Cause a False Positive?

Being around marijuana smokers isn't enough for a positive test as lab thresholds surpass potential levels from passive inhalation. Instances of sample tampering might impact results, such as diluted urine or adding substances to alter sample stability.

  • Low creatinine levels suggest tampering by diluting the sample with excess water intake or adding water to the sample.
  • Creatinine and specific gravity are key indicators to gauge sample dilution. Labs might add blue dye to toilet water to prevent dilution.
  • Altering sample stability by adding enzymes may change the pH, alerting test administrators.

How Long Do Drugs Remain Detectable?

The detection period for drugs varies based on numerous factors, such as:

  • The quantity of the drug consumed
  • The frequency and type of drug used
  • The individual's metabolism and overall health
  • Fluid intake post-drug use
  • Level of physical activity post-consumption
  • Genetic differences affecting drug processing
