About Barbiturates Screen, Blood in Ocoee
What the barbiturates screen, blood measures
The test measures barbiturate compounds in the bloodstream. Blood is the preferred specimen when a clinician needs to assess the amount of drug circulating at the time of collection, because concentrations in blood reflect recent or active exposure rather than past use.
Barbiturates act by enhancing the inhibitory effects of gamma-aminobutyric acid in the brain. Different barbiturate drugs vary in how quickly they enter and leave the bloodstream, so the timing of the sample relative to the last dose can influence the result.
Screening immunoassays are typically used first. A reactive screen may be followed by a more specific confirmatory method, such as gas chromatography or mass spectrometry, to identify the particular barbiturate and its concentration.
