Additional product description

The One Step Methamphetamine (MET) Test is a rapid, immunochromatographic assay for the detection of methamphetamine and its metabolites in human urine. The test is used to screen urine for the presence of methamphetamine and its metabolites . The test is intended for use by healthcare professionals only. This test provides only a preliminary analytical test result. A more specific alternate chemical method must be used in order to obtain a confirmed analytical result. Gas chromatography/mass spectrophotometry (GC/MS) is the preferred confirmatory method. Clinical considerations and professional judgment should be applied to any drug of abuse test result, particularly when preliminary positive results are indicated. Methamphetamines are central nervous system stimulants that may produce alertness, wakefulness, increased energy, reduced hunger and an overall feeling of well-being. The test is a qualitative visual screening immunoassay based on a competitive binding principle. Methamphetamine or its metabolites in urine compete with drug conjugate immobilized on the membrane for limited antibody binding sites. A negative specimen produces two colored bands, while a positive specimen produces only one control band. The control band indicates that sufficient sample volume has been added and that the reagents are functioning properly.

  For professional in vitro diagnostic use only. This product is designed for detection of methamphetamine in human urine only and provides a preliminary qualitative screening result only. Positive results should be confirmed using an alternate method, preferably GC/MS, and clinical considerations and professional judgment should be applied. The test is not suggested for determining the quantitative level of methamphetamine in urine. Avoid cross-contamination of urine samples by using a new urine specimen cup for each sample, and do not interpret results after 8 minutes.
