A rapid test for the qualitative detection of N,
N-Dimethyltryptamine in human urine.For professional in vitro
diagnostic use only.
INTENDED USE
The NND Rapid Test Dipstick (Urine) is a rapid chromatographic
immunoassay for the detection of N, N-Dimethyltryptamine in urine
at a cut-off concentration of 1000 ng/mL.
This test will detect other related compounds, please refer to the
Analytical Specificity table in this package insert.This assay
provides only a qualitative, preliminary analytical test result. A
more specific alternate chemical method must be used in order to
obtain a confirmed analytical result.
Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) is the preferred
confirmatory method.Clinical consideration and professional judgment should be applied
to any drug of abuse test result, particularly when preliminary positive results are
used.
SUMMARY
N, N-Dimethyltryptamine is a powerful and illegal hallucinogenic
drug. While there is an open debate on whether or not N, N-Dimethyltryptamine is addictive,
this drug poses dangerous physical and psychological effects for frequent users.
Additionally, individuals who frequently abuse N, N-Dimethyltryptamine often develop a
dependence on the drug, proving the dangers of N, N-Dimethyltryptamine abuse.
N, N-Dimethyltryptamine produces a high referred to as a
psychedelic trip. When smoked, a N, N-Dimethyltryptamine trip usually begins instantly and lasts
less than an hour.
However, when drunk in the form of Ayahuasca tea, hallucinations
begin after about 30 minutes and may last from 4-6 hours. Some users report experiencing
mild, lingering hallucinogenic effects for several days after consuming or smoking
N, N-Dimethyltryptamine.
On a physiological level, N, N-Dimethyltryptamine causes an array
of adverse side effects. The NND Rapid Test Dipstick (Urine) is a rapid urine-screening test
that can be performed without the use of an instrument. The test utilizes the
antibody to selectively detect elevated levels of N, N-Dimethyltryptamine in urine. The NND
Rapid Test Dipstick (Urine) yields a positive result when the N, N-Dimethyltryptamine
in urine exceed the cut-off level.
PRINCIPLE
The NND Rapid Test Dipstick (Urine) is an immunoassay based on the
principle of competitive binding. Drugs which may be present in the urine
specimen compete against the drug conjugate for binding sites on the antibody.
During testing, a urine specimen migrates upward by capillary
action. N, N-Dimethyltryptamine, if present in the urine specimen below the cut-off level, will not
saturate the binding sites of the antibody in the test. The antibody coated particles will
then be captured by immobilized N, N-Dimethyltryptamine-protein conjugate and a visible
colored line will show up in the test line region. The colored line will not form in
the test line region if the N, N-Dimethyltryptamine level exceeds the cut-off level, because it
will saturate all the binding sites of anti-N, N-Dimethyltryptamine antibody.
A drug-positive urine specimen will not generate a colored line in
the test line region because of drug competition, while a drug-negative urine specimen
or a specimen containing a drug concentration less than the cut-off will generate
a line in the test line
region. To serve as a procedural control, a colored line will
always appear at the control line region indicating that proper volume of specimen has been
added and membranewicking has occurred.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Allow the test, urine specimen, and/or controls to reach room
temperature (15-30 °C) prior to testing.
1. Bring the pouch or canister to room temperature before opening
it. Remove the test dipstick from the sealed pouch or closed
canister and use it within one hour.
2. With the arrow pointing toward the urine specimen, immerse the
test dipstick vertically in the urine specimen in such a way that
urine does not cross MAX line on the test dipstick for 10-15
seconds. See the illustration below.
3. Place the test dipstick on a non-absorbent flat surface, start
the timer and wait for the colored line(s) to appear. Read results
at 5 minutes. Do not interpret the result after 10 minutes.
INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS
(Please refer to the illustration above)
NEGATIVE:* Two colored lines appear. One colored line should be in
the control line region (C), and another colored line should be in
the test line region (T). This negative result indicates that the
N, N-Dimethyltryptamine concentration is below the detectable
cut-off level.
*NOTE: The shade of color in the test line region (T) may vary, but
it should be considered negative whenever there is even a faint
colored line.
POSITIVE: One colored line appears in the control line region (C).
No line appears in the test line region (T). This positive result
indicates that the N, N-Dimethyltryptamine concentration exceeds
the detectable cut-off level.
INVALID: Control line fails to appear. Insufficient specimen volume
or incorrect procedural techniques are the most likely reasons for
control line failure. Review the procedure and repeat the test with
a new test. If the problem persists, discontinue using the test kit
immediately and contact local distributor.
EXPECTED VALUES
This negative result indicates that the N, N-Dimethyltryptamine
concentration is below the detectable level of 1000 ng/mL. Positive
result means the concentration of N, N-Dimethyltryptamine is above
the level of 1000 ng/mL. The NND Rapid Test Dipstick (Urine) has a
sensitivity of 1000 ng/mL.
