Frequently Asked Questions
How do I collect the urine and send in a specimen?
Collection and shipping guidelines are provided to our customers. Please read these instructions carefully. PSI also offers telephonic training and client service support.
How long does it take for results?
Results are typically reported in 24 hours1 for negatives, 48-72 hours for positives. All presumptive positive results go through a confirmation process to ensure accurate results.
What methodology is used to perform initial screening?
Urine specimens are screened by enzyme immunoassay (EIA). An immunoassay is a test that uses antibodies to detect the presence of drugs and other substances in urine. The initial screening process does not measure the specific amount of drug present in urine samples. It provides either a positive or negative result, indicating the presence or absence of detectable drug. Cut-off levels available by request.
What testing methodology is used for confirmations?
Confirmations are available by thin layer chromatography (TLC), radioimmunoassay (RIA), gas chromatography (GC), gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) and liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS). GC/MS is used to confirm presumptive positive drug screen specimens obtained from PSI’s instant on-site
screening devices.
Why are screening & confirmation cut-off levels different?
Screening and confirmation testing are performed using different methodologies that require separate cut-off levels. The immunoassay tests used to perform initial drug screens are designed to detect a wide range of chemically similar compounds that react with antibodies which are at the core of the chemistry making up the tests. In contrast, GC/MS and LC/MS/MS
confirmatory testing detects specific metabolites that provide identification and quantification of a specific drug.
