Choose Between Urine or Hair Drug Testing in Sioux Falls, SD

Accredited Drug Testing provides various testing methods based on customer requirements. Urine testing, with a detection period of 1 to 5 days, is the most commonly used method by employers, courts, and educational institutions.

Common Urine/Hair Drug Testing

Finding the Right Drug Testing Panel

Drug test screenings are referred to as panels. The most commonly utilized are the 5-panel, 10-panel, and 12-panel tests (indicating the number of drugs tested for), though customized screenings are available.

Understanding a Drug Test

A drug test involves a scientific analysis of biological samples, like urine, hair, blood, saliva, or sweat, to determine the presence of specific drugs or their metabolites. Key uses include identifying performance-enhancing steroids in sports, screening by employers or parole officers for illegal substances, and alcohol testing by law enforcement, commonly measured as BAC (blood alcohol content). BAC tests are typically conducted using a breathalyzer, while urinalysis is widespread in sports and workplaces. Various other methods, differing in accuracy, sensitivity, and detection periods, exist.

Can Passive Smoke Inhalation Trigger a False Marijuana Positive?

Being in a room with people smoking marijuana isn't enough to trigger a positive test result, as laboratory cut-off concentrations are set much higher than levels reached merely through passive inhalation.

Some urine screen anomalies may suggest a false negative or sample tampering. For instance:

• Low creatinine levels might signal a tampered sample, perhaps diluted by the subject drinking excessive water before the test, or by water added to the urine.
• Creatinine levels, alongside specific gravity, help determine sample dilution. To avoid this, labs might add blue dye to their toilets to prevent sample dilution with toilet water.
• Attempts to alter urine stability using certain enzymes may inadvertently adjust pH levels, which are also monitored.

Duration of Drug Presence in the System

The detection window or look-back period for drug tests is influenced by several factors. These include:

• The quantity of drug consumed
• The frequency of consumption
• The specific drug type
• An individual's metabolic rate and general health
• The volume of fluids consumed post-drug consumption
• Physical activity involved after consuming the drug
• Genetic factors affecting drug interaction
