Millitary Drug Testing
Drug testing in the armed forces is a much more serious activity than drug testings in school, college, workplaces and other such places. This is because soldiers need to be more fit, strong and agile than students and civilian employees. Military drug testing is usually the hair drug test. This test is more accurate than other tests. The detection period for the hair drug test i.e. the duration for which the test can determine drug use after the drug was last consumed, is also greater than that of other tests. The test also happens to be the most expensive. But in this case, fitness is a far more important consideration than the cost of the test.
Drug testing in the military is conducted at the entry level and also during when the soldier / officer is serving in the military. This keeps out drug users from the military. Drug users can produce catastrophic consequences. If they operate under the influence of drugs, they are likely to put the lives of their fellow soldiers in danger for various reasons. For this reason, the military conducts such an expensive drug test.
Drug residues accumulate inside the body hair and body fluids as a person consumes drugs. Human hair is made up of 3 concentric layers. Drug residues are stored inside the middle concentric layer. Because of such a remote location, it is difficult to tamper with the residues and hence with the results of the test. This is also the reason why the test is so expensive – the outer layer of the hair has to be opened and the middle layer, the cuticle, has to be examined for drug residues. To pass drug test that uses hair as the sample, you either need to abstain from drugs or use a detox masking shampoo and conditioner. Masking shampoos open the outer layer of the hair and form a protective lining over the cuticle. This lining does not dissolve in lab solvents. Therefore during the test, drug residues, if any, are not detected at all. The conditioner restores the appearance of the hair, disturbed due to opening of the outermost layer.
