Using sample protocols from the transportation and nuclear
power industries, this book reviews federal regulations and mandatory guidelines for federal workplace testing programs and demonstrates techniques for specimen collection and laboratory testing. The book compares workplace testing outside the US, including protocols, attitude surveys, and legislation. It provides
analytical approaches for immunoassay and confirmatory testing; scientific information for biological matrices other than urine; procedures for using hair, oral fluid, and sweat; and physiologic considerations when interpreting alternative
matrix test results. Tables, figures, data, and references support the text.
