How long can urine be stored in the lab before testing?!


Question: How long can urine be stored in the lab before testing!?
Here is what happened:
Thursday I was drug tested!.
Monday I was told there was a problem with my paperwork (the chain of custody was not followed)
Tuesday I re-tested!.
Wednesday, they said the paperwork was fixed and they would still use the first sample!.
This was SIX days after the sample was given!.
Can they do that!?
And if so, does this help me!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
I would imagine quite a while after all They are using twenty year old specimens to check DNA in criminal cases where they couldn't before, If you think you may have been dirty this may be a chance to say if the paper work wasn't handled correctly how do you know your sample wasn't contaminatedWww@Answer-Health@Com

if it's for a drug test, the urine should be fresh!. if it's gone for more than a day, it should be replaced with a new one!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

so what you're saying is you do drugs!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
