Order Opiate Screen and Confirmation, UrineThe Opiate Screen and Confirmation, Urine is a two-stage laboratory evaluation of urine for opiate compounds. An initial immunoassay screen provides a rapid qualitative result, and any presumptive positive is then re-examined by a more specific method to confirm the presence of opiates.
About Opiate Screen and Confirmation, Urine in Thornton
This test combines a broad screen with a targeted confirmation, giving a more complete picture than either step alone.
The screening phase uses an immunoassay that reacts to opiate-class compounds in the urine sample. It is designed to flag specimens that may contain these substances, but it can also react to related compounds, so a reactive screen is not by itself a final determination.
When the screen is reactive, the confirmation phase applies a chromatographic technique such as gas chromatography-mass spectrometry or liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. This step separates and identifies specific opiate compounds, which reduces the chance of a false positive from cross-reactivity.
Urine is the sample type for both phases. Collection typically follows standard clean-catch or supervised protocols set by the laboratory, and the specimen is transported and stored under conditions that preserve the analytes until analysis. Turnaround is generally one to three business days, depending on whether confirmation is required.
