Poisonous compounds are chemical compounds that can cause a lot of health probems including fatality if not treated immediately. Poison exposure can be accidental, intentional, premeditated, and other reasons. Some chemical poisons are quick reacting such as cyanide that can cause death, while others such as Arsenic may take some time before symptoms start to appear.  It's difficult at times to determine what the poisonous compounds that someone has been exposed to, however, there are some indicators such as manifestations of symptoms including shortness of breath, rash, ect., and more importantly doing a poisonous compound testing. An accurate test results is critical for the appropriate administration of treatment.

How to know what to Test for?
     It's obvious that there are just too many chemicals, that are potentially poisonous that a person can be expose to.  it's like a needle in a haystack, a challenging task but doable.  Therefore, we have grouped or categorized them according to their chemical properties, relative physiological effects, and others.  Also, the symptoms (i.e. dizziness, shortness of breath, vomiting, etc.) that you experienced will help us narrow down the more appropriate category to find out what substance(s) you've been expose to.

Poison Testing Categories or Options
A. Qualitative Testing - negative of positive results ONLY
a. Option or Category 1 - Comprehensive Drug Analysis

Drugs can also be considered poisonous, if give in large amount.  This will check for over 150 drugs including prescribed drugs such as Valium, Xanax, etc., illicit drugs such as Cocaine, Amphetamines, etc., and over the counter drugs such as Benadryl, Acetaminophen, etc.

b. Option or Category 2 - Steroid Testing

Steroids such as testosterone, cortisone, and many others have many side effects including nausea, dizziness, skin rash and others, especially if given in large doses.  Although not commonly use as a poison, it is still a good idea to test for steroids.

c. Option 3 or Category 3 - Synthetic Cannabinoids (Marijuana)

These are synthesize or made in a laboratory that targets the same receptors (CB1 & CB2) in the brain, as the natural marijuana (plant base from Cannabis sativa), but more potent as much as 800 times more potent than natural marijuana.  Deaths have been reported from using Synthetic Marijuana raising concerns on how to control its distribution and use. 

d. Option 4 or Category 4 - Poison Testing

These are from most common household chemicals such as bleach, antifreeze (engine coolant), rat poison, and many others.

e. Option 5 or Category 5 - Microbial Testing

Testing for bacteria such as E. coli, Salmonella, and others, fungus.  Symptoms does become apparent until several hours. 

f. Option 6 or Category 6 - Herbicide Testing

g. Option 7 or Category 7 - Pesticide Testing

B. Quantitative or Concentration Analysis

Any results from the above categories can be quantified, or determine the concentration at an additional cost.

  a. One to two chemical compound - $125.00 per compound.

  b. More than two compounds - $375.00 for any number of compounds found.  For example, if there are 4 chemical compounds the cost is $375.00.  Likewise, if there are 7 chemical compounds that need to be quantified the cost is also $375.00, and so on.
