How does the body absorb, metabolise, and excrete drugs? How can drugs be detected through sweat? How does fingerprint drug testing work, and how does it compare with traditional urine and saliva testing? How does the science behind fingerprint drug testing work?
This practical science-led webinar explains the biological and technical principles behind fingerprint drug testing, giving organisations a clear understanding of how the method works and how it supports accurate, reliable identification of recent drug use in workplace environments.
The session explores how drugs move through the body, how detectable substances are excreted through sweat, and why fingerprint sweat provides a valid sample for identifying recent drug use. It also explains the screening technology behind the Intelligent Fingerprinting Drug Screening System, including immunoassay and fluorescent detection technology.
