  •             Results correlate well with blood (1)

3.  Confirmation via GC(LC)/MS(/MS) The “Gold Standard” , TAT: 48 hrs.

4.  Cannot be adulterated or substituted as specimen collection is observed 

5.  Detection Windows (Source: Quest Diagnostics 2008):

  

Oral fluid testing technologies are going to become the gold standard for all workplace drug & alcohol testing. 

The less invasive nature of oral fluid POCT sample collection creates obvious benefits like ease-of-use, instant results, and avoids any dignity or gender issues. 

Beyond these obvious and convenient benefits, the most important benefits address the serious problems and voids in traditional testing practices.  Specifically, oral fluid detects "recent-use" vis. historical use, and unlike urine-based testing, has no adulteration/sample substitution issues.

 
The Ora Point™ is the premium oral fluid POCT device on the market today. It sets the industry standard for performance, quality,ease-of-use and dependability. Its advantages include:

  

  • Screens for "RECENT USE"
  • Screens for today's most abused illicit drugs (see Technical Information)
  • Has NO known adulterates or substitutes
  • Delivers results in minutes
  • Is less invasive than tradition testing methods
  • Has no gender or dignity issues
  • Has complete and integral confirmatory testing at certified laboratories
  • Has simple, complete and inexpensive training for administrators
