Intended Use
This device is intended for medical/forensic screening of urine.
Device Story
Chromatographic absorbent device for qualitative urine drug screening; detects Cannabinoids/metabolites. Principle: competitive immunoassay; drug/metabolites in sample compete with immobilized drug conjugate for limited antibody sites. Labeled antibody-dye conjugate binds free drug; complex migrates up membrane. Positive result: no magenta band at reaction zone (drug >50 ng/ml). Control zone: unbound dye conjugate produces magenta band confirming device function. Used in clinical/forensic settings; operated by laboratory personnel. Output: visual colorimetric band interpretation. Assists healthcare providers/forensic analysts in identifying potential drug presence for further confirmatory testing.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing: 249 individual urine samples compared against Sigma SIA, Syva Emit, and GC/MS; sensitivity 1.00, specificity 1.00, accuracy 100%. Clinical trial (NIDA certified lab): sensitivity 1.00, specificity 0.9935, accuracy 99.67% vs GC/MS gold standard.
Technological Characteristics
Chromatographic absorbent device; porous membrane support; antibody-dye conjugate; immobilized antigen conjugate. Qualitative visual readout. No electronic components or software.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the qualitative screening of human urine for the presence of Cannabinoids and their metabolites at a cutoff concentration of 50 ng/ml.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A cannabinoid test system is a device intended to measure any of the cannabinoids, hallucinogenic compounds endogenous to marihuana, in serum, plasma, saliva, and urine. Cannabinoid compounds include delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, cannabidiol, cannabinol, and cannabichromene. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of cannabinoid use or abuse and in monitoring levels of cannabinoids during clinical investigational use.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). A cannabinoid test system is not exempt if it is intended for any use other than employment or insurance testing or is intended for Federal drug testing programs. The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9, provided the test system is intended for employment and insurance testing and includes a statement in the labeling that the device is intended solely for use in employment and insurance testing, and does not include devices intended for Federal drug testing programs (*e.g.,* programs run by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), the Department of Transportation (DOT), and the U.S. military).
