The increasing incidence of illicit drug abuse is anticipated to contribute to the growth of the specimen validity testing industry. Illicit drug abuse poses significant challenges to public health and safety. For instance, according to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH), in 2021, 52.5 million people globally were estimated to use marijuana, a most commonly used illicit drug. In response, various industries, such as workplaces, law enforcement agencies, and drug rehabilitation programs, have increased their focus on drug testing to ensure safety, compliance, and effective treatment. This increased demand for drug testing creates a parallel need for specimen validity testing to verify the integrity of samples and prevent sample manipulation or adulteration. Additionally, factors such as rising economic conditions, regulatory landscapes, and advancements in drug testing technologies is proving beneficial for the revenue growth.
