Reliable nail drug and alcohol testing
Providing comprehensive drug and alcohol testing
When a hair sample is unable to be collected, fingernails and toenails can be used as an alternative sample. We can test for the majority of our standard 17 drug panel, providing up to six months analysis for fingernails and up to 18 months for toenails.
How does nail testing work?
Nails are made up of the same biological material as hair (keratin) and when drugs or alcohol are consumed, they enter the blood stream and incorporate into the nail.
Due to the way nails grow and the available nail that can be collected, the analysis can only be undertaken on an overview basis.
