DOA PCP One Step Phencyclidine Test with CE certificate urine Test Device

One Step Phencyclidine Test is a rapid one step test for the qualitative detection of Phencyclidine and its principal metabolites in human urine at specified cut-off level.

For in vitro diagnostic use only. For professional use only.

INTENDED USE

The One Step Phencyclidine Test is a lateral flow chromatographic immunoassay for the detection of Phencyclidine in human urine at the cut-off concentration of 25 ng/ml. This assay provides only a qualitative, preliminary analytical test result. A more specific alternate chemical method must be used in order to obtain a confirmed analytical result. Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) is the preferred confirmatory method. Clinical consideration and professional judgment should be applied to any drug of abuse test result, particularly when preliminary positive results are used.

Device:

• Remove a testing device from the foil pouch by tearing at the notch and place it on a level surface.
• Holding a sample dropper vertically, add exactly four drops of the urine specimen to the sample well.
• Read results at 5 minutes. Do not read after 10 minutes.

Strip:

• Remove the test strip from the sealed pouch and use it as soon as possible.
• With arrows pointing toward the urine specimen, immerse the test strip vertically in the urine specimen for at least 10-15 seconds. Do not pass the maximum line (MAX) on the test strip when immersing the strip.
• Place the test strip on a non-absorbent flat surface, start the timer and wait for the red line(s) to appear.
• The result should be read at 5 minutes. Do not interpret the result after 10 minutes.

SUMMARY

Phencyclidine is an arylcyclohexylamine that was originally used as an anesthetic agent and a veterinary tranquilzer. Phencyclidine can produce hallucinations, lethargy, disorientation, loss of coordination, trance-like ecstatic states, a sense of euphoria and visual distortions. It has many street names, such as “angel dust” and “crystal cyclone,” etc. phencyclidine can be administered orally, by nasal ingestion, smoking, or by intravenous injection. It is metabolized in the liver and excreted through the kidneys in urine in unchanged form and oxidized metabolites with a half life of about 12 hours. Suction and urinary acidification in the treatment of overdose typically reduces its half-life from three days to one day.
