Selecting an Appropriate Drug Testing Panel

Drug testing panels refer to the group of substances screened. The most common configurations include 5-panel, 10-panel, and 12-panel tests, each indicating the number of substances tested. Custom configurations are also available.

An Overview of Drug Testing

Drug testing involves analyzing a biological sample—such as urine, hair, blood, breath, sweat, or saliva—to detect specified drugs or metabolites. Applications range from monitoring illegal drug use and performance-enhancing drug detection in sports to legal and probation enforcement, which often uses BAC tests via breathalyzer. Urinalysis is prevalent across workplaces and sports. Various methodologies exist with differing accuracy and detection ranges. Drug tests may also provide quantitative analyses for illegal substances.

Can Passive Smoke Exposure Trigger a Marijuana Test?

Passive exposure to marijuana smoke does not typically cause a positive test, as testing thresholds are set to avoid this. However, unusual urine results may indicate a false negative or sample tampering. For example:

• A low creatinine level may suggest dilution, either from excessive water intake or direct adulteration of the sample.
• Laboratories often use specific gravity and creatinine levels to confirm sample integrity. To prevent dilution, toilet water may be colored blue.
• Some attempt to alter urine stability with enzymes, which can alter pH—another tested parameter.

Drug Retention in the System

Detection periods for drugs vary based on multiple factors:

• Quantity consumed
• Frequency of use
• Type of drug
• Individual metabolic rate and overall health
• Fluid intake post-consumption
• Physical activity since consumption
• Genetic factors influencing individual drug response
