The FUDT Laboratory tests for drugs of abuse and is relied upon by industries nationwide to ensure the safety of their employees. The FUDT Laboratory also works with established programs providing abstinence monitoring, quality control validation for pharmaceutical manufacturers and testing for professional sports teams. The facility utilizes high-speed auto analyzers (Enzyme Immunoassay) for drug screening with secondary (confirmatory) testing by Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry.

thats how they do there drug testing

I'm very familiar with the tests.

All I am saying is that uric acid will probably be added to creatine and specific gravity as integrity checks.

yeah,i guess its time for me to stop for a good while untill i find work and not worry bout failing..

Uric acid is not tested for on a DOT-regulated test. Labs conducting DOT testing can only perform the validity tests outlined in § 40.91 of the DOT regulations and apply the criteria for a "substituted" sample outlined in § 40.93 of the DOT regs:

These are the most current regs on the books.

Good catch BT.

When the DOT begins to use uric acid as a validity test it will be in writing...

Yep, and when the Agency makes any changes to the regs (even proposed changes), it will be in writing as well. :thumbsup:

OMG I am freaking out now reading this! I subbed today using QF 5.7 as well for a NON DOT test at Concentra. Same story though and the hand warmers were the same. Red label that read Spectrum Labs on it. Shrink wrapped and everything. My sample was sent off to ACL Labs in Wisconsin. I too, called in today and checked my batch number with Spectrum. If the temp is right and it's a legit batch why else would it fail? If the temp was off they'd mark that right away. And if it was from uric acid on a DOT screen that would be impossible seeing as standards have not changed.

My heart is going a mile a minute.... ughhhh

failed!.kinda dissapointed

I'm sure we'd all be interested in seeing on paper what they failed you for. Please post when you have a scanned copy.

The only explanation would be a breakdown of the QF under exposure to sunlight or a lab error. Speaking of which... this particular lab is no stranger to that sort of thing. Very interesting articles...
