Selecting the Right Drug Testing Panel

A drug testing panel specifies the range of substances screened, with popular options including 5, 10, and 12-panel tests. Custom screening options are also available.

What is a Drug Test?

A drug test analyzes biological specimens—such as urine, hair, blood, breath, or saliva—to identify specified drugs or their metabolites. Major uses include detecting performance-enhancing steroids in sports and screening by employers and law enforcement. Blood alcohol content (BAC) measurement utilizes breathalyzers, while urinalysis is prevalent in workplace and sports drug testing. Various methodologies with differing sensitivity and detection capabilities are employed.

Can Passive Smoke Inhalation Cause a False Positive for Marijuana?

"Passive" marijuana smoke exposure is unlikely to result in a false positive due to screening thresholds set high enough to exclude incidental exposure.

Abnormal urine screen results could suggest deliberate tampering or false negatives, based on:

  • Low creatinine values, indicating potential dilution through excessive water intake or sample adulteration
  • Specific gravity, evaluated alongside creatinine levels to check for dilution
  • Additives such as enzymes, potentially altering pH levels and flagging sample tampering

Retention Period of Drugs in the Body

The detection window of a drug test is influenced by several factors, including:

  • Drug quantity consumed
  • Frequency of usage
  • Drug category
  • Individual's metabolic rate and overall health
  • Fluid intake post-consumption
  • Physical activity post-consumption
  • Various genetic factors affecting drug processing

Local Area Info: Kalamazoo, Michigan

Kalamazoo /?kæl?m??zu?/ is a city in the southwest region of the U.S. state of Michigan. It is the county seat of Kalamazoo County. As of the 2010 census, Kalamazoo had a population of 74,262. Kalamazoo is the major city of the Kalamazoo-Portage Metropolitan Statistical Area, which has a population of 335,340 as of 2015. Kalamazoo is equidistant from the major American cities of Chicago and Detroit, each less than 150 miles away.

One of Kalamazoo's most notable features is the Kalamazoo Mall, an outdoor pedestrian shopping mall. The city created the mall in 1959 by closing part of Burdick Street to auto traffic, although two of the mall's four blocks have been reopened to auto traffic since 1999. Kalamazoo is home to Western Michigan University, a large public university, Kalamazoo College, a private liberal arts college, and Kalamazoo Valley Community College, a two-year community college.

Originally known as Bronson (after founder Titus Bronson) in the township of Arcadia, the names of both the city and the township were changed to "Kalamazoo" in 1836 and 1837, respectively. The Kalamazoo name comes from a Potawatomi word, first found in a British report in 1772. However, the Kalamazoo River, which passes through the modern city of Kalamazoo, was located on the route between Detroit and Fort Saint-Joseph (nowadays Niles, Michigan). French-Canadian traders, missionaries, and military personnel were quite familiar with this area during the French era and thereafter. The name for the Kalamazoo River was then known by Canadians and French as La rivière Kikanamaso. The name "Kikanamaso" was also recorded by Father Pierre Potier, a Jesuit missionary for the Huron-Wendats at the Assumption mission (south shore of Detroit), while en route to Fort Saint-Joseph during the fall of 1760. Legend has it that "Ki-ka-ma-sung," meaning "boiling water," referring to a footrace held each fall by local Native Americans, who had to run to the river and back before the pot boiled. Another theory is that it means "the mirage or reflecting river". Another legend is that the image of "boiling water" referred to fog on the river as seen from the hills above the current downtown. The name was also given to the river that flows almost all the way across the state.
