Order Drug TestingDrug testing is a laboratory analysis used to detect the presence of specific substances or their metabolites in a biological sample. It is a broad category of testing rather than a single assay, and the panel performed determines which compounds are screened. Results are typically reported as negative or positive, with confirmatory testing available when a screening result requires verification.
About Drug Testing in Hurst
Drug testing is used to identify recent or ongoing exposure to substances such as prescription medications, illicit drugs, or alcohol.
Most drug tests begin with an immunoassay screen, which detects drug classes or individual compounds at established cutoff concentrations. A negative result generally indicates that the substance was not present at or above the cutoff.
A positive screen may be followed by a confirmatory method, such as gas chromatography-mass spectrometry or liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry, which identifies the specific substance and can distinguish it from cross-reacting compounds.
The detection window depends on the substance, the dose, the frequency of use, and the specimen type. Urine, blood, saliva, and hair each have different windows of detection, and the panel ordered determines which analytes are evaluated.
