Is it easier to pass a swab test rather than a urine test if you are a chronic user of all illegal street drugs but do not use for 3 days but weight of person exceeds 350 lbs.?

Swab tests are difficult seeing as how DNA is tested during swab tests.

If you smoke marijuana and you have a urine test scheduled, here are some tips to helping pass the urine test (please note that I am not supporting the usage of illegal drugs):

1. Abstain - DONT DO IT (Guaranteed)

2. Flush - Drink lots of water. Please be weary of water intoxication. If you start feeling dizzy or nautious do not continue drinking.

3. Mask - Some people have taken 4 aspirin and have passed a drug test after smoking marijuana.

4. Bring Fake Urine - Bring someone else's pee. If you are being watched, tough luck. (Guaranteed)

If a 210 pound man takes one 5mg Valium the night before a drug test will it be enough to fail a drug test?

He might. The weight doesn't necessarily play a factor in the drug test showing up negative or positive. It is likely the test will show up positive, and if you are concerned about failing drug tests, I would recommend either not taking drugs that aren't prescribed to you or explaining to your employer that you are prescribed Valium for psychiatric reasons and let them speak with your psychiatrist.

What is immunoagglutination?

It is the method of testing for the presence of Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin (HCG), which is elevated during pregnancy.

This process invovles, firstly, incubation of a urine sample and anti-HCG (complementary antibodies that will bind to the HCG hormone). After incubation an 'Hapton Carrier-Conjugate' is added. This molecule has many HCG residues bound to it.

If the patient is pregnant, their urine will be concetrated with HCG and it will be to the antibody, causing most of the antibodies to be bound during the addition of the conjugate. The outcome is that there is no visible clumping of the conjugate therefore the patient will be diagnosed as pregnant.

If the patient is not pregnant, the antibody will bind to the conjugates when they are added, causing the larger molecules to be bound together, and form visible clumps.

CBc for minor in possession of alcohol?

Alcohol in and of itself does not show in a CBC test (Complete Blood Count).

I'd imagine the CBC was part of a routine health screening, vs. being related to the offense.

Alcohol or sterile water in vaccination?

There is never a reason to inject alcohol into the living human body. and methanol is toxic to humans when consumed at all. Alcohol however makes a fine topical antiseptic (applied on the unbroken skin). Some vaccines are supplied in powdered form, and mixed with sterile water, saline, or other sterile, water-based media. Typically, this is NOT a haphazard process and must be done in strict accordance with the instructions and protocol for preparing the vaccine for injection. This is an old and nearly obsolete technique. Nowadays, in most cases, the liquid vaccine is supplied, ready to be drawn up and injected. Powdered vaccines are most often seen in cases where the vaccine needs refrigeration and none would be locally available.

How much does a CBC cost?

It depends on the location, but it usually costs between 15-25.
