 For your information

Our preferred sample for drug testing and evaluation is full length hair strands collected at the skin or scalp level. Roots or follicles are not required so no need to "pluck" your hair strand sample. We can test other body hair including eyebrows, underarm, chest, back, arms, legs, and pubic. These samples can reflect drug ingestion for a 6 (six ) month period of time prior to the sample collection date due to a much slower growth rate. The average growth rate for human scalp hair is about 1/2"/month. Therefore, for the sake of discussion, let's say that you ingested some type of drug about three (3) months ago and you collected your hair strand test sample today. Assuming the amount of the drug you ingested was at a detectable level that drug would likely be found in the third half inch segment measured from the scalp out. We also assume that the segment containing the detectable drug was not trimmed or cut away. Be sure that the sample you submit for testing meets these guidelines.

 More about hair drug testing       

                  

Hair color is not a factor in hair testing due to the process of Hydrolysis.

• Alternate sample sources that may be used for testing include hair collected from the underarms, legs, arms, chest, and pubic.

Sensitive GC/MS or LC/MS/MS technology has the ability to distinguish and measure metabolite from environmental exposures

 

 

• Non-invasive sample collection

• Cost effective

• Sample stability

• Custom segmentation testing for longer detection periods of drug use. Human hair normally grows about 1/2"/month, e.g. a 6" hair strand can provide information regarding trace amounts of toxins, poisons, heavy metals, and many other drugs stored in the hair strands one year ago.

 

 

 

 *TYPICAL DRUG DETECTION PERIODS FOLLOWING SUBSTANCE INGESTION RELATED TO BLOOD AND URINE*

 

Substance Urine Blood
Alcohol 3–5 days via Ethyl Gluconoride (EtG) metabolite or 10–12 hours via traditional method 12 hours
Amphetamines (except meth) 1 to 2 days 12 hours
Methamphetamine 2 to 4 days 24 hours
Barbiturates (except Phenobarbital) 2 to 3 days 1 to 2 days
Phenobarbital 7 to 14 days 4 to 7 days
Benzodiazepines Therapeutic use: 3 days. Chronic use (over one year): 4 to 6 weeks 6 to 48 hours
Cannabis
  • Single Use: 5 to 7 days
  • Prolonged Use: 3 to 4 weeks.
12 days
Cocaine 2 to 4 days with exceptions for certain kidney disorders 24 hours
Codeine 2 days 12 hours
Cotinine (a break-down product of nicotine) 2 to 4 days 2 to 4 days
Morphine 2 days 6 hours
Heroin 2 days 6 hours
LSD 2 to 24 hours 0 to 3 hours
Methadone 3 days 24 hours
PCP 14 days; up to 30 days in chronic users 24 hours

* These values are based on test samples collected from a sample donor with a typical metabolism.*

*Variables include amount, potency, frequency of ingestion. Users may metabolize drugs at different rates.*
 

 Factors which affect metabolism:  

amount and frequency of use 

the body's rate of metabolism

your body mass (size)

your age

your urine pH

your tolerance to drugs or alcohol

and your overall health

 *The strength of the dosage and frequency of ingestion can extend the detection period time*

 

LEGAL CHALLENGES:

• SAMPLE / SPECIMEN INTEGRITY

• PROPER CHAIN OF CUSTODY

• TRAINED & CERTIFIED COLLECTION PERSONNEL

• DATIA CERTIFIED COLLECTION FACILITIES

•CONTRADICTION IN MULTIPLE SAMPLE RESULTS

• MUST HAVE GC/MS OR LC/MS CONFIRMATIONS –

ON PRESUMPTIVE POSITIVE TESTING

• Hair segmentation testing can provide a thirty (30) day approximation

date regarding a single ingestion or on going over a period of time to establish use pattern.

Identification and Descriptions of Drug and Toxic substances

Marijuana-The cannabis plant.  A preparation made from the dried flower clusters and leaves of the cannabis plant, usually smoked or eaten to induce euphoria.

Cocaine - A colorless or white crystalline alkaloid, C17H21NO4, extracted from coca leaves, sometimes used in medicine as a local anesthetic especially for the eyes, nose, or throat and widely used as an illicit drug for its euphoric and stimulating effects.

PCP - phen·cy·cli·dine - A drug, C17H25N, used in veterinary medicine as an anesthetic and illegally used as a hallucinogen; PCP.

Methamphetamines -An amine derivative of amphetamine, C10H15N, used in the form of its crystalline hydrochloride as a central nervous system stimulant, both medically and illicitly.

Amphetamines - A colorless, volatile liquid, C9H13N, used as a central nervous system stimulant in the treatment of certain conditions, such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, depression, and narcolepsy, and abused illegally as a stimulant.

Barbiturates -A class of chemicals derived from barbituric acid or thiobarbituric acid. Many of these are medically important as sedatives and hypnotics (sedatives, barbiturate), as anesthetics, or as anticonvulsants.

Methadone-A potent synthetic narcotic drug, C21H27NO, that is less addictive than morphine or heroin and is used as a substitute for these drugs in addiction treatment programs. It may also be used for chronic pain management.

Methaqualone-A potent synthetic narcotic drug, C21H27NO, that is less addictive than morphine or heroin and is used as a substitute for these drugs in addiction treatment programs. It may also be used for chronic pain management

Morphine-A bitter crystalline alkaloid, C17H19NO3·H2O, extracted from opium, the soluble salts of which are used in medicine as an analgesic, a light anesthetic, or a sedative. Also called morphia.

Benzodiazepines-Any of a group of chemical compounds with a common molecular structure and similar pharmacological effects, used as anti anxiety agents, muscle relaxants, sedatives, hypnotics, and sometimes as anticonvulsants

Opiates-A drug, hormone, or other chemical substance having sedative or narcotic effects similar to those containing opium or its derivatives: a natural brain opiate. Also called opioid.  Something that dulls the senses and induces relaxation or torpor.

Ketamine-A general anesthetic given intravenously or intramuscularly and used especially for minor surgical procedures in which muscle relaxation is not required.

Rohypnol-A trademark used for the drug flunitrazepam.  A powerful sedative drug, C16H12FN3O3, that is illegal in the United States but is used elsewhere as a hypnotic and in anesthesia. It is popularly known as the “date rape” drug because its ability to cause semi consciousness and memory blackouts has led to its association with unwanted sexual encounters.

GHB-a fatty acid C4H8O3 that is a metabolite of gamma-amino butyric acid, that is a depressant of the central nervous system, and that is used illicitly to produce sedative and euphoric effects or to stimulate release of growth hormone to increase muscle mass called also gamma Hydroxybutyrate.

Xanax Alprazolam, like all benzodiazepines, has the potential for abuse. Although it is not manufactured illegally and its misuse and abuse is dwarfed by benzodiazepines like flunitrazepam and temazepam, it is still often diverted to the black market, particularly in the United States where alprazolam is the most widely prescribed benzodiazepine. The state of relaxation, anxiolysis, and disinhibition induced by benzodiazepines is the main reason for their illicit use.

Acceptable test specimens you can submit by mail for evaluation

The analysis can also include a screen for heavy metals (e.g. arsenic, gold, mercury, platinum, lead, silver, etc.). 

Standard TAT( turn around time) is 12-14 business days. Express service is available with TAT( turn around time) being three to five (3-5) business days following sample reception. Express service is subject to additional fees.
