PRINCIPLE OF THE PROCEDURE
Rapid Visual Results
For Forensic Use Only

The ORAL-VIEW™ Saliva Multi-Drug of Abuse Test is a one-step lateral flow chromatographic immunoassay based on the principle of INTENDED USE
competition for limited antibody binding sites between the drug in the The ORAL-VIEW™ Saliva Multi-Drug of Abuse Test is a one-step rapid sample and a drug-protein conjugate immobilized on a porous qualitative immunoassay for screening potential abuse of one or more drugs in human oral fluid at the following concentrations: During testing, oral fluid migrates to the testing area of the membrane by capillary action, mobilizing the colored antibody conjugates. The Abbreviation Test
Cutoff Detection
antibody conjugates then move along the membrane to the test area. In the absence of drug, or if the drug concentration in oral fluid is below the cutoff limit, the colored conjugates attach to the respective drug antigen immobilized in the test line region, forming a colored band (T line). If drug is present in oral fluid, the drug competes for limited antibody binding sites. If the drug concentration is at or above the cutoff limit, the This test provides only a preliminary result. A more specific alternate drug will saturate all the binding sites of the antibody, preventing the chemical method must be used in order to obtain a confirmed analytical attachment of the colored conjugates to the antigen in the test line area result.

It should should be applied to any drug of abuse test result, particularly when always appear as a colored band regardless of the presence of the drug. preliminary positive results are obtained. REAGENTS AND MATERIALS SUPPLIED
25 Individually pouched test devices with caps Amphetamine (AMP)
Amphetamines are central nervous system stimulating drugs. They may MATERIALS REQUIRED BUT NOT PROVIDED
induce alertness, wakefulness, increased energy, reduced hunger and overall feeling of well being. Overdose and extended usage of amphetamines may lead to substance abuse, which may cause severe and/or permanent damage to the human nervous system. TEST FORMAT
Benzodiazepines (BZD)
Benzodiazepines, including alprazolam, diazepam, lorazepam, triazolam,
chlordiazepoxide, flurazepam and temazepam are sedative, hypnotic
and anti-anxiety drugs commonly used as oral tranquilizers.
Benzodiazepines have a low potential for physical or psychological dependence. However, the same as other central nervous system stimulating drugs, they may induce drowsiness and muscle relaxation. Chronic abuse of benzodiazepine may result in intoxication, similar to drunken behavior. Overdose and extended usage of benzodiazepines may lead to coma and possibly death. Benzodiazepines are absorbed at different rates and their effects may vary with the absorption rate. Cocaine (COC)
Cocaine is a nervous system stimulant that can be addictive. Physical
effects of cocaine use include constricted peripheral blood vessels,
dilated pupils, and increased body temperature, heart rate and blood
pressure. Some cocaine users report feelings of restlessness, irritability
and anxiety, both while using and between periods of use. High doses of
cocaine and/or prolonged use can trigger paranoia. Smoking crack
cocaine can produce particularly aggressive paranoid behavior in users.
Long-term effects: Prolonged cocaine use can result in ulceration of the
mucous membrane of the nose and can damage the nasal septum
enough to cause it to collapse. Cocaine-related deaths are often a result
of cardiac arrest or seizures followed by respiratory arrest.
Morphine (OPI)
Morphine is a frequently prescribed drug (under the trade name Serax)
for treatment of moderate to severe pain. It is also a common metabolite
of opiates [morphine, codeine (methyl-morphine), and heroin (semi- Test device shown capped and uncapped to expose collection pad. synthetic derivatives of morphine)]. Opiates are administered either by PRECAUTIONS

SPECIMEN COLLECTION AND TESTING
LIMITATIONS
IMPORTANT: Test devices must be at room temperature (15-30°C)
before testing.
This product is for testing human oral fluid only. 1. Bring the sealed pouch to room temperature before opening.
• Results obtained by this device provide only a preliminary, Remove the test device from the pouch and use it as soon as qualitative analytical test result. A more specific alternate oral fluid method must be used to obtain a confirmed analytical result. 2. Insert the collection pad end of the device into the subject’s

INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS
A comparison study was performed at an academy of science. Ninety (90) samples were blind labeled and tested for each analyte (drug or IMPORTANT: Do not read test results after seven (7) minutes following
drug metabolite). Each sample was tested with the test device, and the appearance of the C line. The T line should always be interpreted results were compared to HPLC/MS results. The test results were independently of the C line. Do not compare line intensities between grouped into: below 50% cutoff (Negative), between 50% cutoff and cutoff, between cutoff and 150% cutoff, and above 150% cutoff (Positive). Seven (7) discrepancies were observed at the cutoff to 150% cutoff level. Overall, this device exhibits greater than 95% agreement with the HPLC/MS results. The test results are tabulated as follows: Cutoff: 50 ng/mL
