Five Part Federally Approved Chain of Custody Forms



Five Part Federally Approved Drug Test Chain of Custody Forms

“Chain of Custody” refers to the document or paper trail showing the seizure, custody, control, transfer, analysis, and disposition of physical and electronic evidence. For drug testing, it is the course of action of documenting the management and storage of a specimen from the moment a donor gives the specimen to the collector to the final destination of the specimen and the review and reporting of the final result. Any and all drug testing should incorporate a Chain of Custody form and process to insure the integrity of the specimen to be tested.
