Service Description

Oral Fluid Drug Testing Oral fluid is an alternative matrix for drug testing that has recently been approved for use by the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) in federal workplace drug testing programs. Oral fluid represents the liquid in the oral cavity (mouth) and contains saliva as well as cellular debris, gingival fluid and microorganisms. Drugs/metabolites are transferred into the oral fluid from the blood and as a result, may be present primarily as parent drug and in lower concentrations than typically observed in urine. Oral fluid is usually collected in specialized specimen collection devices that containing stabilizing buffers for transport to the laboratory for testing. While testing must be optimized to accommodate lower cutoffs and specimen volumes, the methodologies used for testing are similar to those used for urine drug screening. Initial testing is performed by immunoassay and confirmatory testing is performed by mass spectrometry. Our oral fluid drug test profile options include: Amphetamine/methamphetamine/ecstasy Barbiturates Benzodiazepines Buprenorphine Cannabinoids (THC) Cocaine Cotinine Ethyl alcohol Fentanyl Methadone Opiates (expanded menu) Oxycodone Phencyclidine (PCP) Propoxyphene Tramadol Results for specimens that screen negative for all drugs are generally available within 24-36 hours after specimens are received at the laboratory. Results for confirmation testing of presumptive positive screens are usually available within an additional 72 hours. Oral fluid testing is suitable for all testing categories (e.g., preemployment, post-accident, reasonable suspicion) and can be incorporated into your current testing protocol as the primary specimen or as an alternate specimen when a donor is unable to provide a urine sample.
