certainty with accredited laboratories Laboratory Services In cooperation with selected partner laboratories we can offer you quantified analyses of the use of drugs or alcohol, as well as the identification of substances. With a urine sample, the consumption of alcohol over the last week can be measured reliably. Furthermore, with a 12 cm long strand of hair, the consumption behaviour of a sample donor can be traced back for up to a year. Accreditation to ISO 17025, and compliance with the quality standards of the GTFCh (Society for Toxicological and Forensic Chemistry) make these laboratories professional and reliable partners. We can therefore guarantee the best service and smooth processing of your orders. We make it easy for you you will get all the necessary material in a sample kit. You only have to send the sample to the laboratory in the enclosed envelope and wait for the result. After approximately 10 working days, we will send you the result by mail and upon request also by fax in advance. page 12 Laboratory Services nal von minden GmbH company profile
Hair Analysis test up to 12 months back The use of drugs and medication can be detected by a hair analysis over a much longer period than with a saliva or urine sample. The exact time frame is dependent on the length of hair. By using a 12 cm long hair sample, with an average hair growth rate of 1 cm per month, the consumption behaviour of an entire year can be examined. Advantages of Hair Testing 3 Long detectability 3 Segmentation possible for the temporal detection of consumption 3 Screening for several substances simultaneously (AMP, MET, BZD, THC, COC, MTD, OPI, alcohol) Urine Analysis inexpensive quantification LSD GHB Tilidine A urine sample is best suited to provide a cost-effective quantified analysis on the use of drugs or alcohol. In addition with a urine analysis, differentiated results can be achieved to help in cases of confusion about consumption or suspicion of cross-reactions. They also offer a cost-effective way to test substances for which no rapid drug tests are available yet, such as LSD, Tilidine and GHB. Saliva Analysis the most simple sample collection Saliva analysis is becoming increasingly popular. This is due to the simple, non-invasive and easy to monitor sample procedure. Fields of application are various and include occupational medicine, police testing on the street, drug testing in schools and in insurance cases. Advantages of Saliva Testing 3 Fast, simple, non-invasive and easy to monitor sampling procedure (sampling is possible almost anywhere) 3 Up to 3 days detection time 3 Manipulation of the sample almost impossible page 13
