NS Canada
As with the UFC and olympic athletes nowadays, they can find trace amounts of things in the pico grams range - which is one trillionth of a gram.. 'One picogram is the average weight of the DNA in one cell of a hummingbird.'

So yes, you can find anything if you want to go looking that closely. As for the 'lifetime' aspect depends on what it is, and where it is stored in the body I would suppose.

Like trace amounts of problem elements in food and water, there would have been an acceptable limit of how much remained after the withdraw period, and how precise the testing was when limits were set - which have evolved over time as testing improved.
