PEDIATRIC Drug Screen 14 with Reflex Confirmation, Urine (ETG, AMP, BAR, BZO, COC, PCP, THC, 6AM, OPI, OXY, MD, FENT, BUP, TRAM)
Also known as: Pediatric Urine Drug Screen, 14 panel
Use
Detect fetal or pediatric exposure to controlled substances
Special Instructions
Ensure the urine specimen is collected in a plastic urine container without preservative, as samples with preservative will be rejected. It's essential to transport the specimen at room temperature if within three days; otherwise, it should be refrigerated or frozen for longer storage.
Limitations
Certain factors such as diluted urine samples can interfere with detection thresholds, potentially leading to false negatives. Additionally, cross-reactivity with other substances not included in the panel may occur. Reflex confirmatory tests might require additional time and are essential for verifying any presumptive positive results through more specific analytical methods like LC/MS-MS.
