Oral Fluid Drugtest A procedural control is included in the test. A color line appearing in the control region (C) is con- sidered an internal procedural control. It confirms sufficient specimen volume, adequate membra- ne wicking and correct procedural technique.
1. The SalivaScreen Oral Fluid Drug Test Device provides only a qualitative, preliminary
analytical result. A secondary analytical method must be used to obtain a confirmed result. Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) or gas chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (GC/MS/MS) is preferred confirmatory methods.
2. A positive test result does not indicate the concentration of drug in the specimen or the route of administration.
3. A negative result may not necessarily indicate a drug-free specimen. Drug may be present in the specimen below the cutoff level of the assay.
A phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) pool was spiked with drugs to target concentrations of ± 50% cut-off and ± 25% cut-off and tested with the SalivaScreen Oral Fluid Drug Test Device. The
results are summarized below.
