Device Description
ACCU NEWS® Drug Screening Test Card/Urine Cup is based on the principle of highly specific immunochemical reactions between antigens and antibodies. The devices utilize a competitive immunoassay in which a drug-protein conjugate immobilized on a nitrocellulose membrane competes with the drug target present in human urine for limited binding sites presented in colloidal gold-labeled mouse monoclonal antibody. The presence of a color band at a test region (coated with drug-protein conjugate) indicates a negative result for that particular test. The absence of a color band at the test region indicates presumptive positive result for that particular test.
A color band at the control region, which was coasted with goat anti-mouse polyclonal antibody, should always appear regardless of the presence of the drug or its metabolites. The presence of the control band during testing serves as a built-in procedural control, indicating the completion of the test and validity of the operation.
There are two formats of the test device, and both of them operate on the same basic principle. ACCU NEWS® Drug Screening Test Card device consists of individual test strips encased in a protective plastic case, and the device can detect up to 5 drugs/drug metabolites simultaneously. The ACCU NEWS® Drugs of Abuse Screening Urine Cup consists of the assembled test card integrated into a sample collection cup. Both formats are single-use, in vitro diagnostic devices.
Test results interpretation:
Negative: Two pink lines appear, one in the control region and the other in the test region. Regardless of the color intensity, any line formed in the test region, even if it is faint, the result is considered negative.
Positive: Only one pink line appears in the control region, and no line appears in the test region.
Invalid: If no line appears in the control region, the test result is invalid regardless of the absence or presence of the test line.

The presence of the control band during testing serves as a built-in procedural control, indicating the completion of the test and validity of the operation.
There are two formats of the test device, and both of them operate on the same basic principle. ACCU NEWS® Drug Screening Test Card device consists of individual test strips encased in a protective plastic case, and the device can detect up to 5 drugs/drug metabolites simultaneously. The ACCU NEWS® Drugs of Abuse Screening Urine Cup consists of the assembled test card integrated into a sample collection cup. Both formats are single-use, in vitro diagnostic devices.
Test results interpretation:
Negative: Two pink lines appear, one in the control region and the other in the test region. Regardless of the color intensity, any line formed in the test region, even if it is faint, the result is considered negative.
Positive: Only one pink line appears in the control region, and no line appears in the test region.
Invalid: If no line appears in the control region, the test result is invalid regardless of the absence or presence of the test line.
