SalivaScreen - Oral Fluids Drug Test Drug Test Procedure
MDS-7995 (AMP50/BAR50/BUP5/BZO10/COC20/MET50/OPI40/OXY20/PCP10)
- Bring tests, specimens, and/or controls to room temperature (15-30°C) before use. Donors should avoid placing anything (including food, drink, gum and tobacco products) in their mouth for at least 10 minutes prior to specimen collection.
- The oral fluid specimen should be collected using the collector provided with the kit. No other collection devices should be used with this assay.
- Instruct the donor to not place anything in the mouth including food, drink, gum, or tobacco products for at least 10 minutes prior to collection.
- Using the provided collection swab, have donor sweep inside of mouth (cheek, gums, tongue) several times, then hold swab in mouth until color on the saturation indicator strip appears in the indicator window of collection swab.
- Remove collection swab from mouth and insert it sponge first into the screening device, pushing until the locking flange locks in place in the bottom of the device.
- Test device upright on flat surface and keep upright while test is running. Wait for the colored bands to appear in test results area. Read results at 10 minutes.
Discover SalivaScreen
SalivaScreen introduces an innovative approach to drug testing, harnessing the power of oral fluids to detect a wide range of substances accurately and efficiently. Our advanced technology streamlines the testing process, offering unparalleled convenience and reliability.
How it Works
Sample Collection: We begin by collecting a saliva sample from the individual using an absorbent pad or swab. This non-invasive method ensures comfort while gathering crucial data.
Analysis: The collected saliva sample undergoes rigorous analysis using sophisticated testing techniques. Our technology can detect various substances, including illicit drugs like marijuana, cocaine, opioids, and amphetamines, with swift results.
Result Interpretation: Following analysis, results are interpreted to determine the presence of drugs or their metabolites. Results are reported as positive or negative for each substance tested, providing clear insights.
Benefits of SalivaScreen
Non-Invasive: Say goodbye to invasive procedures. SalivaScreen offers a painless and simple method of drug testing, eliminating discomfort for individuals.
Convenience: Our process is quick and adaptable to different settings, making it ideal for workplace drug testing or law enforcement purposes. Results are available promptly, enhancing convenience further.
Accuracy: SalivaScreen technology ensures high accuracy in detecting drugs or metabolites, reducing the chances of false results. Advanced testing methods guarantee reliable outcomes.
Detection Window: Detect recent drug use effectively with our shorter detection window compared to other testing methods like urine or hair testing.

Procedure
Step 1
The purpose of Step 1 is to saturate the sponge with saliva. With collection swab (B), have donor sweep the inside of mouth (cheek, gum, tongue) several times, then hold swab in closed mouth until instructed to remove it. Donor may remove swab from mouth when color appears in the indicator window.
Note: If at 7 minutes, color on saturation indicator has not appeared in indicator window, proceed with test (Step 2).
Step 2
Remove collection swab from mouth and insert sponge first into screening device (A), pushing until locking flange locks in place in the bottom of device. Once locked in place the device airtight, tamper evident, and ready to dispose of after use or send to lab for confirmation (
on presumptive positive result). Ensure that specimen is contacting all test strips. If not, rotate the device side to side/front to back to disperse the specimen within the chamber.
With specimen dispersed, set device upright on flat surface. Keep upright while test is running.
Step 3
Read negative results as soon as two lines appear on any test strip, often within 2 minutes. Any indication of a line in the test region (T) should be considered a line, and therefore a negative result. Read presumptive results at 10 minutes.
Note: The THC (marijuana) strip has improved sensitivity, which may show a less intense color band in the test region (T). This is an expected and normal response.
If the device includes alcohol, read the alcohol strip at 2 minutes. Compare the color of the reaction pad with the color chart provided to determine the relative blood alcohol level. No color change indicates a negative result.
Reading Results
Negative
A negative result is indicated by the presence of the lover “Test” or “T” Line of each designated drug. The presence of even a very light “Test” or “T”. Line indicates a negative result.
Positive
A positive result is indicated by the absence of the lower “Test” or “T” Line for a specific drug. Wait 5 minutes to determine a positive result.
Invalid
An invalid result is indicated by the absence of the upper “Control” or “C” Line and the lower “Test” or “T” Line for a specific drug. If this occurs run a second test.

Important: Donors should not place anything (including food, drink, gum, or tobacco products) in their mouth for at lease 10 minutes prior to the procedure. Do not bite, suck, or chew on the sponge. Refrain from talking while collection swab is in the mouth.
NOTE: If after 7 minutes, color on the saturation indicator has not appeared in the indicator window, proceed with the test. Once the collection swab locks in place, the device is airtight, tamper evident, and ready to be disposed or sent to lab for confirmation (on presumptive positive result).
