Can an Intercept® oral fluid test be beaten?
We have studied a wide range of adulterants and have not found any that can beat our test. Of course, donors may attempt to introduce something onto the pad or collection vial. This risk is highly unlikely since every collection is directly and easily observed. • Who collects the sample? The beauty of oral fluid testing is that the donor collects his or her own sample under direct visual supervision. The donor places the collection pad between his or her cheek and gum for at least two minutes. Once the absorbant collection pad is saturated, it is placed in a vial, the handle of the collection device is snapped off at the rim of the vial, the vial is sealed, and the donor initials the seal. The entire process takes just 5 minutes. • How much does it cost? Please contact us for volume discounts or go to our order info page for individual costs. • What is the turnaround time? 24 hours after receipt of specimen and 72 hours to confirm a positive result for oral or urine testing. • Isn’t or
