Introduction

Multi drug screen cups are essential tools in medical diagnostics, workplace safety, and law enforcement for the rapid detection of multiple drugs within a single testing session. These cups integrate multiple drug testing strips, making them efficient for screening multiple substances simultaneously without the need for multiple tests. The sensitivity and specificity of these devices are crucial for yielding reliable results.

Substances Detected by a Multi Drug Screen Cup

The substances detectable by a multi drug screen cup range widely, depending on the configuration of the test strips included in the product. The following list provides a comprehensive overview of common substances that can be detected:

• Amphetamines (AMP): Typical cutoff level of 1,000 ng/mL.
• Methamphetamines (mAMP): Detectable at a cutoff level of 500 ng/mL.
• Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC): Generally detected at 50 ng/mL.
• Cocaine (COC): Threshold is commonly 300 ng/mL.
• Opiates (OPI): Standard cutoff level is 2,000 ng/mL.
• Phencyclidine (PCP): Detectable at 25 ng/mL.
• Benzodiazepines (BZO): Typically detected at 300 ng/mL.
• Barbiturates (BAR): Commonly detected at 300 ng/mL.
• Tricyclic Antidepressants (TCA): Detected at 1,000 ng/mL.

These cutoff levels are indicative of typical thresholds required for a positive result, although variations exist depending on the specifications of individual manufacturers and product lines.
