LOINC description : Hair analysis provides a longer surveillance window for drug use than other methods
because hair retains drugs longer (weeks or months, compared with days detectable
in blood or urine). Collecting hair specimens also is less invasive than urine or
blood sampling. Drawbacks for hair analysis include expense, and environmental contamination
of the specimen. Testing is performed for medico-legal purposes.;
