MedEx Neotest Multi-Drug 5 Test Kit Dosage/Direction for Use

Collecting the Urine Sample: Urine samples (5ml or more) may be collected at any time in a clean, dry container made from either plastic or glass without preservatives.
If specimens cannot be assayed immediately, they can be stored at 2-8°C for up to 72 hours prior to testing. For long term storage, specimens can be frozen at -20°C or below for up to 24 months.
CAUTION: Urine samples may be potentially infectious. Wash your hands with soap and warm water before and after collecting urine samples and performing the Neotest Rapid Drug Test.
It is suggested that testing should be performed as soon as possible after the sample has been collected.
If the specimen was refrigerated or frozen, they should be allowed to come to room temperature before testing.
Urine specimens exhibiting visible precipitates should be filtered, centrifuged, or allowed to settle, so that clear aliquots are obtained for testing.
Performing the Test: 1. Tear the pouch along the notch, remove the dip card from the pouch.
2. Remove the cover from the dip card. Immerse the strips protruding from the dip card into the urine sample, until the dip card is about 2mm above the liquid surface.
The urine sample should NOT touch the dip card.
Take the dip card out after 3 seconds and lay it flat on a clean, dry, non-absorbent surface (e.g. mouth of the urine container).
NOTE: It is recommended to immerse for up to 10 seconds if no migration of the urine sample to the test zone is seen.
3. Wait for 5-10 minutes, then read the results. DO NOT INTERPRET RESULT AFTER 30 MINUTES.
CAUTION: Be certain to place strip on a flat surface to ensure proper migration of the urine sample to the test zone of the test.
Reading the Result: This test screens for amphetamines (AMP), barbiturates (BAR), benzodiazepines (BZO), cocaine (COC), ketamine (KET), ecstasy (MDMA), methamphetamines (MET), opiates (OPI), phencyclidine (PCP), buprenorphine (BUP), oxycodone (OXY), tricyclic antidepressants (TCA), marijuana (THC), morphine (MOR) and methadone (MTD) depending on the test kit purchased. Each target drug being tested for has its own test strip.
Step 1: Check that the test is working properly by looking for a pink control line in the Control Region. This control line should appear on all the test strips. If no control line appears, it is an indication of an invalid result and that the test may not be working correctly.
Step 2: A visible pink control line in the Control Region indicates the test is functioning properly and the results are valid. An invalid result may be due to improper testing procedures or the deterioration of the kit components. Repeating the assay sequence using a new device is recommended.

NEGATIVE: A negative result is indicated by two pink colored lines - one in the Control (C) Region and one in Test (T) Region. The color intensity of the test line may be weaker or stronger than that of the control line.
PRELIMINARY POSITIVE: A preliminary positive result is indicated by only one pink coloured line appearing in the Control (C) Region and no line appearing in the Test (T) Region.
IMPORTANT: If a preliminary positive result is shown, the sample should be sent to a laboratory for a second test to be conducted for confirmation.
INVALID TEST: An invalid result is indicated if no line appears in the Control (C) Region. An invalid result may be due to improper testing procedures or the deterioration of the kit components. Repeating the assay sequence using a new device is recommended.
