Oral Fluids Drug Testing
Certified lab results from an easy-to-use oral fluid collection device

Confidential drug test results are finally available from an easy-to-use oral fluid collection method.  The device used for oral fluid tests is the leading oral fluid laboratory-based test for the NIDA-5 drugs of abuse panel (marijuana,  cocaine, opiates, amphetamines and PCP).  Ecstasy is  reported under the “methamphetamines” group.  By using oral fluid instead of urine, donors can collect and seal their own samples under direct visual supervision following “chain of custody”.  This non-invasive, self-collection drug testing method allows for on-site collection … anytime,    anywhere … and takes about five (5) minutes.

Essentially any drug that can be detected in blood or urine can also be detected in oral fluid.  The oral fluids device has been FDA approved for testing.  When compared to urine analysis, the overall positive rate for a NIDA-5 Drug Panel was 5.06% for the Intercept oral fluids and 4.46% for the urine analysis.
