Testing For Drugs Of Abuse: Methods And Reliability, Edward A. Kaufman
Journal of Law and Health
The purpose of this paper is to discuss the entire testing process, from specimen collection and preparation (vital processes that are often beyond the control of the laboratory) to test methods, quality assurance measures, medico-legal documentation, and result reporting and interpretation. Each of these steps demands careful attention, and the hallmark of a responsible, quality-conscious laboratory is that it can offer a complete testing system that focuses not only on the assays themselves but also on each of the necessary precautions and transactions so crucial to the viability of test results.
