Drug Testing News-Drug testing kits on sale in Newcastle university student union

Posted on by

It was revealed in the UK press last week that in an attempt to reduce the dangers posed to their students by drugs, cheap drug testing kits have gone on sale in the student union of Newcastle university. The test kits costing around £3 are designed to identify what the substance being tested is.

The test kits work by a chemical reaction occurring between the test and the substance, that then produces a colour change. The user can then look on the colour chart to see what substances the drug contains. The idea behind the test is that the user can then make an informed choice based on the results as to whether to take the drug or not.

Drawbacks to the test kits are that often these street drugs are often cut with other substances that may not all be detected by the test, and it is often these other substances that can pose a significant danger to the user.

Posted on by

Urine drug testing is still by far the most popular choice for most individuals or companies wanting to perform a drug test.

Why is urine drug testing still so popular ?

  1. It is the cheapest way to test for drugs use
  2. Urine drug testing is very quick & easy to do and gives results immediately
  3. The result from a urine drug test is easy to interpret
  4. Urine drug testing kits are highly accurate when compared to GCMS
  5. Urine drug testing kits are very reliable
  6. Urine drug testing kits offer a long detection period compared to saliva drug testing.
  7. The range of drugs that can be tested for currently is much larger than with saliva drug testing
  8. There are internationally agreed cut off levels for the detection of most drugs in urine

Are there any disadvantages to urine drug testing ?

  1. It does involve handling urine samples which can be off putting to some-although if you use an integrated drug testing cup the urine handling is kept to a minimum
  2. Observing sample collection is difficult so confidence in the urine sample is not as high as with a saliva drug test

Drug Testing Kits Saliva the oral fluid drug test DSW-765

Posted on by

Drug testing kits for saliva, also known as oral fluid drug tests have been available for around 8 years. Recently the US FDA opted in favour of saliva drug tests as its first choice for employment, workplace and federal drug screening, allowing US agencies to move from urine based drug testing to saliva based screening programs. The one major problem with urine drug testing is the collection, or observed collection of samples, and the issues around substitution, dilution or contamination that can arise when a testee attempts to avoid detection. Saliva swab collection avoids all these issues and allows directly observed sample collection and delivery directly to the test container fully observed and witnessed if required, giving the testing agency 100% confidence in the testing procedure.

One of the best value drug testing kits for saliva currently on the market is the DSW-765 distributed by UKDrugTesting. This saliva drug test offers an ideal combination of 6 drug test membranes in a single test kit, covering most common drugs of abuse of interest to UK companies. The product is available for next day UK delivery and trial packs are also available for companies to run trial evaluations.
