Test Code OXYSX Oxycodone Screen, Chain of Custody, Random, Urine

Useful For

Detection of oxycodone and oxymorphone in urine following chain-of-custody procedures

 

This chain-of-custody test is intended to be used in a setting where the test results can be used definitively to make a diagnosis. Chain of custody is required whenever the results of testing could be used in a court of law. Its purpose is to protect the rights of the individual contributing the specimen by demonstrating that it was always under the control of personnel involved with testing the specimen; this control implies that the opportunity for specimen tampering would be limited.
