6 Panel Drug Test Kit – A Rapid Urine Drug Test for Six Drugs of Abuse

Description

6 Panel Drug Test Kit.

EliteScreen 6 panel assay is a rapid urine ‘dip card’ for six drugs. Available in two options, so you will always find the right product for establishing possible drug abuse.

This device is classed as a qualitative immunoassay designed to screen drug metabolites at the cut-off levels specified by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA); fixed cut-off levels ensure consistency and accuracy when testing.

The rapid multi-drug urine screening test is a six-panel drug test that has an FDA 510(k) approval for use at home or in the workplace. It has also been approved by CLIA, establishing it as a device that needs no prior knowledge or professional training.

6 panel drug test overview:

This device consists of six individual panels. Each panel detects a specific drug of abuse. The assay has a one-step lateral flow chromatographic immunoassay based on the principle of competition for limited antibody binding sites between a drug or drug metabolite. After completion, urine migrates along the membrane by capillary action, mobilizing the colored antibody conjugates. The antibody conjugates then move along the membrane panel to the test area, displaying the result of the analysis producing reddish/pink bars indicating the analysis results.

Procedure on how to use 6 panel drug test kits:

Collect a fresh sample of urine from the donor in a suitable container. We recommend a container with a temperature strip. Collect around two fl oz (50 ml) and observe the temperature. It should be between 93 to 98° F.

• Step 1. Remove the cap to the dip card and place it on one side.
• Step 2. Gently dip the six tips of the card into the urine sample. Be careful not to submerge the card, as this will flood the membrane and invalidate the analysis. Keep the tips in the urine for around twenty seconds.
• Step 3. Then replace the cap and place it on a flat, clean surface.
• Step 4. Observe the clear lines develop in the result windows.

How to interpret 6 panel drug test kits:

The Control line (C) serves as internal quality control for each test on each panel. It will always appear as a colored band regardless of the presence of the drug.

Negative: A colored line will form in the (T) area on each panel: If the drug concentration is below the cut-off limit, the antibody’s binding sites will not affect the conjugates to the antigen in the test line area of the membrane.

Presumed positive: No colored line will form in the (T) area on the test result window: If the drug concentration is at or above the cut-off limit, the drug will saturate all the binding sites of the antibody, preventing the attachment of the colored conjugates to the antigen in the test line area of the membrane. The example below indicates this test was presumed positive for Cocaine.

Invalid: Each panel has a built-in control feature called the control (C) line. The line’s presence indicates an adequate sample volume of urine for testing and that the reagents migrated adequately. If a line does not form, the result is invalid. Discard the device and start the testing process with a new test.
