You would think that drug test equipment is only used on the earth. However, even astronauts are required to be extensively tested and to have extensive background checks performed on them before they are sent out into space in special situations, such as to a space station. It is of primary importance to see to it that they not only avoid endangering their own lives, but also the lives of their fellow astronauts…not to mention the billions of dollars worth of equipment which is being protected by them.
This is, of course, a huge responsibility. This is a lot of power for a few people to hold at one time in their lives, and they are required to work together in order to make the experience, which can last for months, a successful one.
In other words, drug testing can make or break a climbing career for a space jumper.
When dealing with drug test equipment, it is necessary to remember that humans are fallible and will not just take failure lying down. They want to have control over their lives, and if they cannot get this control over an addiction they may have, they will at least attempt to gain control over the urine drug test which is given to them. That is why an adulterant test is built right in to our Medix integrated pro-split cup 6+6, and which is why our other products, like our ToxSure saliva drug test, are so popular as well. After all, you must be able to control who is in charge of your important equipment, and who is not.
Drug testing is invaluable in this respect, because it is not based upon someone else’s opinion or a boss who is “out to get you.” Instead, scientific data must be super accurate, so that it does not trigger a false positive and ruin someone’s career unnecessarily, or trigger a false negative, and allow someone into power who cannot handle the pressure and responsibility.
