Forensic toxicology is the use of toxicology and other disciplines such as analytical chemistry, pharmacology and clinical chemistry to aid medicolegal investigation of death, poisoning, and drug use. (according to wiki).. the first "sample" is urine and it says A urine sample is quick and easy for a live subject, and is common among drug testing for employees and athletes. Urine samples do not necessarily reflect the toxic substance(s) the subject was influenced by at the time of the sample collection. An example of this is THC from cannabinoid (for example, marijuana) use, which in heavy users can be detected in urine for up to 14 days following use. Note also that it can take as long as 8 hours until a given substance can be detected. Specific to workplace drug testing, urine collection MUST be directly observed due to the prevalence of substance abusers "beating the test" via sample substitution or adulteration.....
well we know this isn't entirely correct, in fact, its full of inaccuracies.
but it sounds like forensic toxicology is a fancy word for drug test.
who told you you needed a forensic toxicology test? pre-employment? probation?
