Drug Facilitated Sexual Assault Toxicology Specimen Collection Kit - Hair

In cases of sexual assault, evidentiary specimens must be collected promptly; however, in cases where the assault was drug facilitated, the amnesia effect of these drugs may result in the passing of several days before the victim becomes aware they were drugged and then sexually assaulted.

Detection of drugs in drug facilitated sexual assault is limited due to their rapid elimination from the victim's urine; hair, on the other hand, traps and retains date rape drugs and/or their characteristic metabolites, allowing the detection of a variety of drugs used to facilitate a sexual assault for several months after the assault.
