No matter how effective substance abuse testing is, individuals will always attempt to beat drug testing. This can be done by diluting the urine specimen, causing chemical breakdown through ingested something into the body or adding it directly into the specimen, or substituting their urine for another substance amongst other methods…
Specimen Validity Testing (SVT) is performed to check whether the sample submitted for drug testing has been adulterated, e.g., diluted, Fake (Counterfeit) or not the sample of the donor.SVT is analogous to checking currency with a dye marker which indicates the currency is counterfeit.
Current DOA SVT technology does not detect counterfeit urine and 18 other classes of subversion. Teenagers, who are frequent visitors to the internet, are particularly vulnerable. Often, parents detect behavioral problems with their child and ask the child’s physician to test for drug usage. However, neither the parent nor most physicians are aware that the drug test result may be false. Consequently, the teenager does not get treatment and the problem is subsequently detected by overdose which may be fatal. Drug users spend over $1 billion per year to purchase Counterfeit urine in order to “pass” their drug tests.
