Drugs of Abuse Analysis
Precise, Defensible Drugs of Abuse Surface Testing
Don’t let uncertainty drive critical decisions. Drugs of Abuse surface testing from Hayes Microbial Consulting delivers clear, defensible results so you can act with confidence. We pair strict chain-of-custody with validated analytical methods—including confirmatory LC-MS/MS where appropriate—to identify and quantify drug residues on surfaces with precision and rapid turnaround. Ideal for incident response, remediation validation, compliance documentation, and risk management.
Why Drugs of Abuse Surface Testing? Real Answers, Real Fast
Drug residues are invisible—but their impact on safety, liability, and compliance is very real. From workplaces and schools to hospitality, housing, vehicles, and public facilities, surface testing helps you:
- Verify contamination and scope remediation
- Document cleanliness post-incident or post-remediation
- Support policy enforcement and compliance programs
- Protect staff, tenants, and visitors with evidence-based decisions
Bottom line? Accurate analysis isn’t “nice to have”—it’s essential. Trust the Hayes Microbial approach for actionable findings, scientific rigor, and advanced technology that set you apart.
The Power of LC-MS/MS: Advanced Detection for Rapid Results
Liquid Chromatography–Tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) is the gold standard for targeted drug residue detection. Here’s how our process works for environmental surface samples:
- Sample Collection: Pre-moistened swabs or wipes collect residues from defined surface areas under strict chain-of-custody.
- Sample Preparation: Residues are extracted with specialized solvents and cleaned using appropriate purification techniques.
- Liquid Chromatography (LC): Target compounds (and select metabolites) are separated based on their chemistry.
- Tandem Mass Spectrometry (MS/MS): Separated compounds are ionized and measured by their mass-to-charge signatures for highly specific identification and quantification.
This method delivers low detection limits, excellent specificity, and rapid, reliable results.
