I was tested yesterday for a random. I work for the Federal Gov. I had a bottle of Quickfix which i purchased about a year ago. Heated to right temp and they did not even take a reading. Split the sample and they tagged and bagged it go be sent to a Dr office in Alabama for testing. Am I being paranoid? Will I pass? Can they detect synthetic urine? Please alleviate my fears.

The primary reason that I am worried is because they sent it to a Drs Office in Alabama instead of a place like Labcorps. What if they test for uric acid? Are testing procedures state mandated or is it up to the companies or Facilities discretion? If i lose my job i am very much screwed. Please give feedback. The testing facility is in Alabama

If they didn't even test it on the spot, but instead sent it out to some lab, then you should be worried in my opinion. Because they could easily do the testing themselves, but it seems like they are sending the samples to some specialist that will check to see exactly what is in your urine(and they might discover that it actually isn't authentic urine).

Most places send it to a lab for testing

I think the protocols are state mandated and i think the only way they can detect if it is fake is if they check for uric acid which i believe is only done in HI, WA and OR. Someone correct me if im wrong

They sent it to the University of Alabama medical center and they do a NDIA test. I thinks its just a 5 panel. Im still nervous but think I should be find
