The Global Specimen Validity Testing Market: Highlights

Specimen validity testing (SVT) is performed on a urine drug screen specimen to detect substitution, adulteration, or dilution. SVT includes assays for urinary pH, nitrates, oxidants, creatinine, specific gravity, and other indicators of specimen adulteration. In developed markets such as The United States the laboratories are only allowed to bill for screening and quantitative testing. There are instances where lab’s licenses have been revoked or suspended who have failed to comply with the above requirements.

Especially countries with border issues such as LATAM, US-Mexico, Eastern Russia, this test has higher significance to check the movements of drug peddlers. SVT is a major urine drug screening tool that can enhance border security (suspected cases i.e. detect drug – illicit and prescription), enhance workplace safety, monitor patients’ medication compliance, and abuse as well as prescription medication diversion. Because drug testing is associated with personal, occupational, and legal implications, pain specialists and primary care physicians must be confident in their abilities to interpret urine drug assay results in order to respond duly to optimize clinical outcomes.
