Drug monitoring oral fluid collection

A convenient specimen collection alternative

Oral fluid collection is a convenient and effective alternative for situations when urine collection is not practical or observed collection is needed.

Why use oral fluid testing?

Simple and convenient to collect

Drugs tend to be detectable in oral fluid sooner than in urine

Easily observed to help reduce specimen tampering or adulteration

Lower cutoffs for defining positive results

Quantisal® oral collection device:
fast, convenient specimen collection

Volume indicator window takes the guesswork out of sample collection
The Quantisal® volume indicator window helps you ensure enough specimen has been collected for screening, confirmation, and repeat testing. When the volume indicator window turns blue, 1 mL (+/-10%) of oral fluid has been collected.

Optimal for observed collection
Because an oral fluid collection can be observed, it helps reduce the opportunity to alter or tamper with a drug test specimen.

Convenient collection and fast turnaround time
Oral fluid specimen collections with Quantisal take approximately 5 minutes and can be performed in the physician’s office or at a Quest Patient Service Center. Positive results are confirmed, reviewed, and typically reported within 2-3 days of receipt.

Detects recent drug use or misuse
Data show that oral fluid is very effective at detecting recent use or misuse of drugs.
