Why breath test for cannabis?
The HOUND® CANNABIS BREATHALYZER advances cannabis testing by introducing breath as a new category to help employers align their testing policies with emerging cannabis laws. By targeting just THC molecules, cannabis breath testing and its short detection window solves one of the most complex challenges of rapid cannabis legalization: knowing when, not just if, an employee’s cannabis use may create a safety risk at work.
BREATH TESTING BENEFITS
Perform Fast + Easy Collections
On-location collections will be performed in minutes and instrument-read results will typically be returned on-site in less than 20 minutes.
Shortest Detection Window
Maintain workplace safety and deter employee use on the job or shortly before coming to work by leveraging the industry's shortest cannabis detection window.
Virtually Eliminate Cheating
An innovative product design and seamless collection process will make breath testing difficult to adulterate through tampering or cheating.
Improve Workplace Safety
Testing breath for cannabis is safer and more cost-effective than removing THC from a testing program. Positive results may indicate recent use and potential risk to workplace safety.
Promote Employee Fairness
Aid in employee recruitment, acquisition, and retention. Employees want to work where they will be treated fairly and where their off-the-job choices will remain private.
Timely Test Results
On-Demand screening results will be available on-site within minutes of the collection. Positive screens will be sent to a partner lab for confirmation using ultra-sensitive LC-MS testing.
