PRINCIPLE Incorporating a newly developed, patented collection device for human saliva samples, the Aimstep ORALINE-4 is a self-contained, ready to use, point of contact drug testing device that detects four drugs (or drug classes) of abuse: Marijuana (THC), Cocaine, Opiates (or all opium based drugs) and Methamphetamine (and its derivatives) using the preferred lateral flow immunoassay technology for this method of test screening. The test requires no special training to complete and qualitative yes/no results are visibly obtained within several minutes.
Oral
Fluid Assay System For Drugs of Abuse
The Aimstep ORALINE-4 (formerly OralScreen 4) forensic drug testing system detects the four most commonly abused illicit drugs using a saliva sample. Because urine collection is not necessary, there are certain advantages using the ORALINE-4 system for on-site drug screening. Additionally, because the test subject is present for the entire sample collection and testing process, the possibility of sample adulteration and/or substitution is eliminated. The Aimstep ORALINE-4 will detect Marijuana (THC), Cocaine (COC), Opiate (OPI) and Methamphetamine (M-AMP) use at a sensitivity level for saliva concentration* according to the following chart:
* Sensitivity detection levels for oral fluid (saliva) are considerably lower than those for urine tests because the concentration of detectable drug metabolites are significantly less in oral fluids (saliva). The sensitivity cut-off levels above generally correlate with the standards established for forensic urine tests by the NIDA, SAMSHA and WHO. For a technical document on the precision and specificity of the ORALINE (formerly ORALscreen) saliva drug screen in relationship to urine based tests see the OralScreen Technical Whitepaper. Additionally, the Aimstep ORALINE-4 drug test will detect the metabolites and chemical derivatives of the class of drugs noted above including all opium derivatives (codeine, heroin, etc.) and Methamphetamine (ecstasy, amphetamine, etc.) Other features of using the ORALINE-4 drug test include:
PROCEDURE: The Aimstep ORALINE-4 System is formulated for use with human oral fluid specimens (saliva). Confirm the expiration date printed on the test package. Do not open the test package until you are ready to perform the drug screen assay. If, necessary, bring the test pouch to room temperature . Insure that the person being tested has had nothing in their mouth for at least 5 minutes before sample collection. This includes water or other beverages (dilution) or food of any type (contamination). Directly observe the person during sample collection.
INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS Wait 15 minutes for test results to fully develop. Test results are read by observing and scoring the pre-printed red/pink lines on the test result panel as present or absent, 15 minutes after the sample was added:
A NEGATIVE test result is indicated by the continued presence of a red/pink line adjacent to the labeled target drug.. If there remains a visible line,
no matter how faint it may become during test development, the test should be considered negative for the target drug. An extremely faint line could mean that the target drug is near the sensitivity cut-off level for the test. In such circumstances the test could be repeated at another time or a more quantitative method of laboratory testing be employed.
The Aimstep ORALINE-4 Saliva Drug Testing System is currently available for point of contact drug of abuse screening in the following configurations. Individual tests in 2,5 and 10 each packs. Standard pack is a dispenser box of twenty five tests. ORALINE-4 Saliva Drug Tests are for use in institutional, corporate, professional, judicial, educational, workplace and at home drug testing programs and are intended for non-diagnostic forensic use only.
