Ordering Guidance


For situations where chain of custody is required, a Chain-of-Custody Kit (T282) is available. For chain-of-custody testing, order CDA5X / Drug Abuse Survey with Confirmation, Panel 5, Chain of Custody, Urine.

Additional Testing Requirements


If urine creatinine is required or adulteration of the sample is suspected, the following test should be requested, ADULT / Adulterants Survey, Urine.



Specimen Required


Supplies: Urine Container, 60 mL (T313)

Collection Container/Tube: Plastic urine container

Submission Container/Tube: Plastic, 60-mL urine bottle

Specimen Volume: 30 mL

Collection Instructions:

1. Collect a random urine specimen.

2. Submit 30 mL in 1 plastic bottle.

3. No preservative.

Additional Information:

1. No specimen substitutions.

2. Additional drug panels and specific requests are available. Call 800-533-1710 or 507-266-5700.

Useful For

Detecting drug abuse involving amphetamines, cocaine, marijuana, opiates, and phencyclidine

 

This test is intended to be used in a setting where the test results can be used definitively to make a diagnosis.

Reflex Tests

Test ID Reporting Name Available Separately Always Performed
AMPHU Amphetamines Confirmation, U Yes No
COKEU Cocaine and metabolite Conf, U Yes No
OPATU Opiate Confirmation, U Yes No
PCPU Phencyclidine Confirmation, U Yes No
THCU Carboxy-THC Confirmation, U Yes No

Testing Algorithm

Testing begins with immunoassay screen. If cocaine and metabolites, phencyclidine, or tetrahydrocannabinol metabolite screen is positive, then the gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) confirmation with quantification will be performed at an additional charge. Amphetamines and opiates that screen positive will be quantified with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) at an additional charge.

Clinical Information

This assay was designed to screen by immunoassay and confirm by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) or liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) for the following drugs:

-Amphetamines

-Cocaine

-Opiates

-Phencyclidine

-Tetrahydrocannabinol

 

This assay represents the coupling of an immunoassay screen with an automatic confirmation of all positive results by the definitive assay available and described in each individual reflex test (eg, AMPHU / Amphetamines Confirmation, Urine). All positive screening results are confirmed by GC-MS or LC-MS/MS, and quantitated, before a positive result is reported.

Reference Values

Negative

Screening cutoff concentrations

Amphetamines: 500 ng/mL

Cocaine (benzoylecgonine-cocaine metabolite): 150 ng/mL

Opiates: 300 ng/mL

Phencyclidine: 25 ng/mL

Tetrahydrocannabinol carboxylic acid: 50 ng/mL
