Depends on what you are testing for but usually 24 hours.

Yes, a doctor or lab technician can distinguish between male and female urine on a drug screen based on the presence of specific hormones or markers that are unique to each gender. Additionally, the lab may conduct secondary tests to confirm the gender of the urine sample if necessary.
yes depending on how and who (expense wise) do the test, different lab tests (companys) can do the test depending on the cost(for the company) and how far they look into it. Different procedures cost more money but hey could be wrong not a scientist
Boric acid is used as a preservative in urine sample bottles to prevent the growth of bacteria and preserve the integrity of the sample for testing. It helps to maintain the pH of the urine and keep it stable until it can be analyzed.
Yes, menstruation can sometimes affect a urine sample by potentially contaminating it with blood, which may impact test results. It is best to inform the healthcare provider if you are menstruating before providing a urine sample so they can interpret the results accordingly.
Refrigerating a urine sample helps to slow down the growth of bacteria that can cause the sample to deteriorate or become contaminated. This helps to maintain the integrity of the sample for accurate testing and analysis. Refrigeration also helps preserve the chemical composition of the urine for more reliable results.

The reason to refrigerate urine after collecting a sample is to avoid bacteria from forming in it. If a sample of urine will be taken to a lab within an hour of collecting it, then it does not need refrigerated.
A physician may send a urine sample to a lab for culture to identify and determine the type of bacteria causing a urinary tract infection. This information helps in selecting appropriate antibiotics for treatment.

There is no best, they are all useless and do nothing but mask what is in your urine. If the sample is sent to a lab then they will find it regarless of what your try to use to flush it out. Vinegar or cranberry juice do nothing, and i have even heard of using bleach...which will not only not do anything for your urine sample, but it would probably kill you or send you to the hospital at the very least. If it is a dipstrip test, your best bet is to dilute your urine by drinking large amounts of water to the poin that your piss is as clear as water. If the sample is going to a lab, then you are screwed. The best urine detoxification for a drug test is abstinence.
No . The urine should be tested immediately with a home test or the sample provided at the doctor's office or clinic. Sometimes you will be asked to bring a sample to the lab of the 1st urine you pass in the morning. But it should be that same day, not stored for 3 days.

A urine sample usually lasts up to 7 days if frozen.
They use a urine sample and it is lab tested. Hampton knight is the company that carries out the test.
No. Your doctor will write a request form for the lab to test your sample (blood, urine, faces, swab etc). Depending on the test you may need to collect the sample yourself e.g. urine or stool sample. If it is a blood test, you will need to go to phlebotomy at your local hospital to have a sample of blood collected. However, some nurses at your local surgery may do this. For biopsies of skin or complex procedures you may need to attend a specialised clinic to have the sample collected. A prescription is only for medication. Not for a laboratory test.
It's not good anymore for testing once cold, it has to be fresh warm urine for the test to work properly.
No, scientifically charcoal will not "get rid of THC" which is actually very hard to do. Charcoal cannot flush or mask marijuana in a urine test. Most schemes to pass a marijuana test will either dilute the urine or mask it with chemicals so the sample passes a quick stick test. This does not do much good if they send the sample to a lab for further processing.
