- Abstract
The article focuses on a study that examines the effects of fluid load on characteristics of human urine related to workplace drug testing. It mentions that 24 subjects of diverse ethnic backgrounds participated in the study and urine was tested for dilution, substitution and adulteration. The results indicated that physiological responses of the donor also contribute to dilution of the urine and individuals with higher resting metabolism have a greater potential for producing dilute urine.
