Urinalysis Drug Tests

Testing is most frequently performed on small samples of urine,
although hair, saliva, and blood can also be used. Urine samples are
collected by personnel under carefully controlled circumstances to
avoid mismatches resulting in false positives, and to prevent
adulteration of the specimen by the swapping of samples or the
addition of foreign substances. In particular, urine samples heavily
diluted with water can skewer results, and so highly diluted
specimens are routinely rejected. In certain legal cases involving
individuals known to be repeat drug offenders, personnel are usually
required to witness the sample being provided in order to ensure
that no adulteration has taken place.

Samples can be tested at the same site in which they were provided.
More frequently, it is shipped to a large facility that specializes
in mass-testing specimens. Care must be taken in shipping to ensure
the integrity of the specimen, and those that indicate contamination
are not processed. A special tamper-proof seal is routinely placed on
bottles to indicate whether or not this has occurred

And? 80% test positive because they are on some sort of prescription
dope anyway!



Not even close and I paid for over 450 drug screens on employees this year.
