Urine Drugs & Alcohol Laboratory Testing

Adopted as the gold standard in workplace drug testing, urine has a longer window of detection than oral fluid at 3–5 days on average. Used in many regulated industries, our urine testing follows internationally available guidelines and robust, established procedures.

Our professional scientific team perform screening and confirmation with state-of-the-art technology and equipment. After initial screening for presumptive positives, quantitative/qualitative confirmation is performed by gas chromatography (GC), gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), or liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS).
