Accu-Chem Laboratories

Accu-Chem Laboratories provides analytical and consulting services in clinical environmental and forensic toxicology. Accu-Chem has over 23 years of experience in providing reliable qualitative and quantitative analytical results to national and international clinical and forensic communities. The single purpose of the laboratory is to excel as a reliable scientific and medical resource for physicians, employers and the criminal justice system in the detection and analysis of toxic chemical exposure and controlled substance possession and use.

Environmental And Occupational Toxicology

Obtaining an accurate patient history is the most important step to determine what tests to order. Many patients do not know the chemicals with which they have come in contact and this can be a problem for many physicians. Accu-Chem offers panels that include some of the most common and persistent chemical compounds the average person may encounter. If the patient is unsure as to what chemical exposure they have had, enlightening information may be found in the Manufacturer's Safety Data Sheet (MSDS), given the time and place of initial exposure. We recommend that the physician call our laboratory to consult with one of our professional staff if they need further information.

Forensic Urine Drug Testing

We offer flexible services to meet client specific needs in urine drug testing. Using industry recognized methodologies and procedures we provide screening and confirmation services. Legal credibility and defensibility of test results are insured through rigorous adherence to those methods and chain of custody procedures.
