Critical Issues in Alcohol and Drugs of Abuse Testing

Editat de Amitava Dasgupta
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 ian 2019
Critical Issues in Alcohol and Drugs of Abuse Testing, Second Edition, addresses the general principles and technological advances for measuring drugs and alcohol, along with the pitfalls of drugs of abuse testing. Many designer drugs, for example, are not routinely tested in drugs of abuse panels and may go undetected in a drug test. This updated edition is a must-have for clinical pathologists, toxicologists, clinicians, and medical review officers and regulators, bridging the gap between technical and clinical information. Topics of note include the monitoring of pain management drugs, bath salts, spices (synthetic marijuana), designer drugs and date rape drugs, and more.


  • Serves as a ready resource of information for alcohol and drug testing
  • Ideal resource for making decisions related to the monitoring and interpretation of results
  • Includes concise content for clinical laboratory scientists, toxicologists and clinicians
