DRUG & ALCOHOL TESTING5Adulterant/Integrity TestAdulterant / Integrity Tests (AT) ensure the“integrity” <strong>of</strong> your drug testing program.Adulteration is the tampering <strong>of</strong> a urine specimen with theintention <strong>of</strong> altering the test results The use <strong>of</strong> adulterants in aurine specimen can cause false negatives by either interfacing withthe test or destroying the drugs present in urine. Dilution may alsobe used to produce false negatives results.Adulterant Tests check urine for threespecific common characteristics— Oxidants (OX) bleach, peroxide, nitrites,glutaraldehyde Specific Gravity (SG) sample dilution /Creatinine pH tests for the presence <strong>of</strong> acidic oralkaline adulterants in urine specimensAdulterant Tests are now included asstandard with all our multi panel drug testsRefer Pg 21 for more information on 6AT

Insome cases if the user is deemed“chronic” (smoked regularly for years) thenmarijuana can be present in the system for upto 4+ months.When a urine is tested for drugs <strong>of</strong> abuse, specific guidelines have beenadopted from Federal Mandates on how the urine will be tested and at whatcut-<strong>of</strong>f levels must be exceeded before the sample can be reported as positive.Positive samples undergo a two test criteria before a sample can be reportedas “positive”. The first test is a screening procedure. ( I will usemarijuana as an example, the screening and confirmation rules apply to all<strong>of</strong> the compounds).Marijuana has several similar compounds and to varying degrees react withthe first screen procedure to produce a positive result; that is why the cut<strong>of</strong>f<strong>of</strong> 50ng/ml is used. The screen must exceed 50ng/ml <strong>of</strong> total cannabinoidsbefore that specimen will be sent forward through the system to amore specific confirmation process. The confirmation procedure singles outone primary metabolite associated with marijuana use. The metaboliteDelta-9-THC carboxcyclic acid has a cut-<strong>of</strong>f <strong>of</strong> 15ng/ml. For a specimen tobe reported as positive, the screen must exceed 50ng/ml and the confirmationmust exceed 15ng/ml.These are the Federal Workplace guidelines (USA) and are alsothe International Standard and are used by all countries. Cut<strong>of</strong>flevels vary for each individual drug <strong>of</strong> abuse, but are all setto the International Standard.A report <strong>of</strong> a negative does not mean absolute zero, it meansthat the sample (marijuana) was under the cut-<strong>of</strong>f <strong>of</strong> 50ng/mlor 15ng/ml.

DRUG & ALCOHOL TESTING11USEFUL INFOALCOHOL—What is It ?The alcohol we consume is called ethyl alcohol. Mostalcohols are highly poisonous to humans, but ethyl alcoholcan be tolerated by the body in small amounts. It isclassified as a sedative-hypnotic drug because it acts toslow down the activities <strong>of</strong> the central nervous system.Alcohol is not digested like a food, but approximately 20%passes into the bloodstream through the walls <strong>of</strong> the smallintestine. <strong>On</strong>ly minutes after drinking, the circulation systembegins distributing the alcohol to every part <strong>of</strong> the body. Asthe alcohol travels around the body via the bloodstream, itstarts to slow down the operation <strong>of</strong> various sorts <strong>of</strong> cells.This causes the different stages <strong>of</strong> intoxication anddrunkenness - relaxation, laughter, slurred speech, inabilityto walk straight and dangerous driving.Alcohol interferes with your brain activity. It slows yourreflexes, impairs co-ordination, reduces visual sharpnessand cuts down on your normal caution. Alcohol makes itharder to concentrate. You can’t think as clearly or quickly,or act as fast as you normally do. Even more <strong>of</strong> a problem isthat you are unaware this is happening to you. Alcohol short-circuits the warning light in your brain, so you don’t knowyou’re impaired. You develop a false sense <strong>of</strong> confidenceand well-being. And this is extremely dangerous for anyonewho’s driving, holding responsible positions in industry,involving high concentration or the operation <strong>of</strong> expensivemachinery.SOURCE: “Alcohol Facts and Effects” Booklet published by ALAC.


DRUG & ALCOHOL TESTING12USEFUL INFOBreath AlcoholTesting - The NeedThere are a number <strong>of</strong> reasons why monitoring for alcoholimpairment needs to happen. Some <strong>of</strong> these include:Costs to IndustryIt is estimated that alcohol impairment in the workplace costsNew Zealand $670,000,000 annually in lowered productivity.This does not include the cost <strong>of</strong> workplace accidents andabsenteeism.Human Costs<strong>On</strong> average, 1 person per day iskilled, and 12 people are injured inalcohol related motor vehicleaccidentsAbout 50% <strong>of</strong> road accident victimsare impaired by alcohol at the time<strong>of</strong> the accidentIn total, there are about 800 deaths every year due to heavydrinking, and many times that number <strong>of</strong> injuries.SOURCE: ALAC
