Now on to the questions...
Is it easy for a company like Quest to identify and report synthetics?
I tried searching the forums and couldn't find anything.
Try different keywords. Search using the terms "non-human sample determined"

My roommate used to smoke as heavily as I, but quit 3 months ago, plus is very active. I know I could get him to give me some urine (we've been buddies for 15 years), so would it be more advantageous for me to ask him to provide my sample?
If you have access to persons urine sample that is known to be drug-free, then by all means use it.

I know my own urine won't be clean by that time, so I am buying a whizzinator online tonight (or tomorrow) to help me sub. The company we go through is Quest Diagnostics, so I know I won't be observed....but better safe than sorry.
Employment-related U/As are unobserved unless the donor had been suspected of tampering. Therefore, any artificial delivery systems are not necessary.

Even if there was cause for an observed collection, the observer, in adherence to protocols outlined by the DHHS, is to be inside the bathroom with the donor and directly watch the flow of urine exit the donors body and into the sample cup. There, any artificial delivery systems would easily be noticed by the observer, who would inform the collector. The collector, in adherence to the same protocols, would then stop the collection process and declare a "refusal to test".
Burnt Toast Reviewed by Burnt Toast on . Need some good advice please on passing a rapid 9 panel test.. So a little bit about me. I'm 6"1' and around 180lbs, 30 years old. I have a rapid 9 panel piss test this coming week at a Concentra location. I started smoking about an eight to a quarter a week for the past 3 months. I quit smoking on the 6th of this month so as of today 10/18/13 I'm 13 days clean and I plan to take my test this Tuesday so that will be 17 days clean. I am pretty skinny and am somewhat active. So I have the career job I've been trying to get for years but just have to pass Rating: 5
