NicAlert Cotinine Saliva Strip
NicAlert determines degree of Nicotine smoke exposure by measuring cotinine in saliva. Nicotine, main drug in tobacco smoke, is processed by body into cotinine. (require saliva sample)
NicAlert™ is the world's first oral fluid (saliva) based, point of contact, lateral flow immunoassay for Nicotine (Tobacco) use or abuse. Simple and discreet nicotine or smoking status testing without the inconvenience, embarrassment or biological hazard risks associated with urine specimen collection and handling. Completely eliminates the possibility of urine sample contamination, adulteration, substitution or manipulation. Semi-quantitative results using saliva in approximately 15 minutes. Extremely sensitive to cotinine, the principle metabolite of nicotine, the NicAlert™ test will detect 6 ranges of cotinine concentrations from 0 ng/ml through 2000+ ng/ml.
Principle
Oral Fluid Assay System For NICOTINE USE
The NicAlert™ forensic nicotine testing system detects cotinine, the principle metabolite of nicotine, one of the most addictive drugs of abuse using a saliva sample. Because urine collection is not necessary, there are certain advantages using the NicAlert™ system for on-site nicotine use or smoking status screening. Additionally, because the test subject is present for the entire sample collection and testing process, the possibility of sample adulteration and/or substitution is eliminated. The NicAlert™ test is highly sensitive and will detect even the smallest concentrations of cotinine. Each test strip is divided into six (6) reactive chromo-graphic (color change) levels of cotinine detection. Results are semi-quantitative based on the following detection Table:
