Notimex -- The secretary general of the UANL, ANCER Jesus Rodriguez, and the director of the University Program for Health, Thelma Rebeca Martinez Villarreal, reported in a press conference the results of the trial which began on August 25 last. ANCER Rodriguez indicated that the sample covered three thousand students from the 26 preparatory and three technical schools. "Of the three thousand tests applied, all were negative, which is a good location for our institution, because the risk factor is lower, from the standpoint of the evidence." He said that since July 12 earlier explained the program to parents and more than 90 percent gave their consent. In a universe of 24 thousand preparatorianos first entry, random way, we applied a test of immune testing in saliva, he said. "This test has the feature to detect five drugs, amphetamines, benzodiazepines, cocaine, opiates and marijuana," he said. 10 chemical biologists were trained to carry out drug tests at random. The secretary general of the UANL said that the recommendation arising from this program is to systematize anti-doping measures for courses and workshops, in addition to maintaining direct communication with teachers, parents and students to prevent this type of addiction. It is projected that for the semester that starts in January 2009, proceed to a second phase of students in third semester of high school and then do so in schools. Will be carried out campaigns to cover smoking and alcoholism because they are risk factors in students, said. Meanwhile, the director of the University Program of Health indicated that through the project "Healthy University", will cover matters relating to psychosocial aspects, environment, nutrition, physical activity and prevention of drug abuse. The segments of pupils aged between 15 and 17 years represent a risk factor, hence the emphasis in this student group, said Martinez Villarreal.
