Secret information is hidden in your hair

Your hair can show who you are.  It’s not just about personality or musical taste, hair can also record how much you drink, or whether you smoke or take drugs, or even how stressed you are.

 To test whether the person has taken any chemicals like alcohol or drug the scientists used hair analysis that can detect long-term alcohol or drug abuse over some time, with just one test and more information about it can be obtained from laweekly.com.

One can know whether the other person is still drinking alcohol or taking drugs or not even after saying to stop taking alcohol or drugs even after instructions given. Samples commonly used to detect alcohol and narcotics are blood and urine. But now even hair is useful when we need evidence of drug and alcohol use over a recent period.These samples have what is called a “window of detection”, which is how far back the effects of drugs or alcohol can be traced. For blood, the detection window is usually measured in hours, while urine can show evidence of days or weeks back.

Meanwhile, hair can show a history of alcohol use for months back.  This level of information makes hair testing extremely valuable for any legal purposes.

If we want to screen candidates for important positions, we can use a hair test to find out if they are regular drug users Or for example if you suspect that your drink was spiked with narcotics at a party, but it’s been too long to detect in blood or urine?  The narcotics, if any, can still be traced through the hair. Hair has a longer detection window that allows scientists to find traces of narcotics even if the crime is long gone.

The research group will investigate the factors that affect the concentration of certain chemicals in the hair, which are produced when our bodies process alcohol.

This is important so that we have more confidence in the results of hair testing when presented in court for any purpose.  We need full certainty in terms of databecause in case of any case the judge’s decision is very influential on a person’s fate.
