Highly stable, simple to collect, and easy to transport testing method providing up to 12 months usage history.
Nail Drug Test
How can drugs be detected in nails? Any drug that is consumed circulates in the bloodstream. As a nail grows, substances pass from the blood vessels below the nail into the keratin fibres where they become trapped and can thus be detected.
Why choose nail testing? Nail testing is ideal for those cases where hair testing is not possible (such as the donor has no or little hair, for religious reasons, and for those concerned with their appearance).
Nail samples are collected using standard nail clippers and are collected by the donor with a specimen collector present. Nail samples must be approximately 2 - 3 millimeters in length on all fingers or toes to provide a sample of sufficient weight. We do not mix finger and toenail samples.
Collection Method
The nail is collected as close to the nail bed as possible. If the nail is long (5 mm or above) then only one would be required. If the nails are short then it may be best to take clippings from a couple of nails. Either fingernails or toenails can be used for the test, but not a mixture. Approximately 10mg of nail is required in total.

- Methamphetamine
- Benzodiazepines
- Cocaine

- PCP
