Rapid Response Amphetamine (AMP) Rapid Test
Amphetamine (AMP) Rapid Test is a rapid, screening test for the qualitative detection of Amphetamine and metabolites in human urine at specified cut off levels.
For professional use only.
For in vitro diagnostic use only.
【INTENDED USE】
Rapid Amphetamine (AMP) Test is an immuno-chromatographic assay for the qualitative determination of the presence of Amphetamine (AMP) listed in the table below.
Drug(Identifier) | Calibrator | Cut-off level |
Amphetamine (AMP) | d-Amphetamine | 1000ng/mL |
This assay provides only a preliminary analytical test result. Gas Chromatography/Mass spectrometry (GC/MS) is the preferred confirmatory method. Clinical consideration and professional judgment should be applied to Amphetamine (AMP) of abuse test result, particularly when preliminary positive results are indicated.
【SUMMARY】
Amphetamine and the structurally related “designer” drugs are sympathomimetic amines whose biological effects include potent central nervous system (CNS) stimulation, anorectic, hyperthemic , and cardiovascular properties. They are usually taken orally, intraveneously, or by smoking. Amphetamines are readily absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and are then either deactivated by the liver or excreted unchanged in the urine with a half life of about 12 hours. It can be detected in the urine for 1 to 2 days after use. Amphetamine is metabolized to deaminated (hippuric and benzoic acids) and hydroxylated metabolites. Methamphetamine is partially metabolized to amphetamine and its major active metabolite. Amphetamines increase the heart rate and blood pressure, and suppress the appetite. Some studies indicate that heavy abuse may result in permanent damage to certain essential nerve structural in the brain.
【PRINCIPLE】
Amphetamine (AMP) Rapid Test is a competitive immunoassay that is used to screen for the presence of Amphetamine (AMP) and metabolites in urine. It is chromatographic absorbent device in which, drugs within a urine sample, competitively combined to a limited number of drug monoclonal antibody (mouse) conjugate binding sites.
When the test is activated, the urine is absorbed into test by capillary action, mixes with the respective drug monoclonal antibody conjugate, and flows across a pre-coated membrane. When drug within the urine sample is below the detection level of the test, respective drug monoclonal antibody conjugate binds to the respective drug-protein conjugate immobilized in the Test Region (T) of the test . This produces a colored Test line in the Test Region (T) of the test, which, regardless of its intensity, indicates a negative test result.
When sample drug levels are at or above the detection level of the test, the free drug in the sample binds to the respective drug monoclonal antibody conjugate, preventing the respective drug monoclonal antibody conjugate from binding to the respective drug-protein conjugate immobilized in the Test Region (T) of the device. This prevents the development of a distinct colored band in the test region, indicating a preliminary positive result.
To serve as a procedure control, a colored line will appear at the Control Region (C) of the test, if the test has been performed properly.
【WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS】
【CONTENTS】
【STORAGE AND STABILITY】
【OPERATION】
Test must be in room temperature (15ºC to 30ºC)
【INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS】
Preliminary positive (+)
Only one colored band appears, in the control region (C). No colored band appears in the test region (T).
Negative (-)
Two colored bands appear on the membrane. One band appears in the control region (C) and another band appears in the test region (T).
Invalid
Control band fails to appear. Results from any test which has not produced a control band at the specified read time must be discarded. Please review the procedure and repeat with a new test. If the problem persists, discontinue using the kit immediately and contact your local distributor.
NOTE:
【TEST LIMITATIONS】
1. This test has been developed for testing urine samples only. No other fluids have been evaluated. DO NOT use this device to test substances other than urine.
2. There is a possibility that technical or procedural errors, as well as interfering substances in the urine specimen may cause erroneous results.
3. Adulterated urine samples may produce erroneous results. Strong oxidizing agents such as bleach (hypochlorite) can oxidize drug analyte. If a sample is suspected of being adulterated, obtain a new sample in a different, unused, cup.
4. This test is a qualitative screening assay. It is not designed to determine the quantitative concentration of drugs or the level of intoxication.
5. A positive result does not indicate level or intoxication, administration route or concentration in urine.
6. A negative result may not necessarily indicate drug-free urine. Negative results can be obtained when drug is present but below the cut-off level of the test.
【QUALITY CONTROL】
Users should follow the appropriate federal state, and local guidelines concerning the frequency of assaying external quality control materials.
Though there is an internal procedural control line in the test device of Control region, the use of external controls is strongly recommended as good laboratory testing practice to confirm the test procedure and to verify proper test performance. Positive and negative control should give the expected results. When testing the positive and negative control, the same assay procedure should be adopted.
【PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS】
Accuracy
The comparison studies were conducted using Rapid Amphetamine (AMP) Test and commercially available rapid drugs of abuse tests. The studies were performed on approximately 600 clinical specimens previous collected from the clinical settings. Presumptive positive results were confirmed by GC/MS. Results were as follows:
Test | AMP |
Positive Agreement | 100% |
Negative Agreement | 99.20% |
Total Agreement | 99.20% |
Specificity and cross reactivity
To test the specificity and cross reactivity of the test, the test device was used to test Amphetamine (AMP), metabolites and other components of the same class that are likely to be present in urine. All the components were added to drug-free normal human urine. The following structurally related compounds produced positive results with the test when tested at levels equal to or greater than the concentrations listed below.
Compound | Response equivalent to cutoff in ng/mL |
AMP | |
d-Amphetamin | 1,000 |
d.l-Amphetamine | 2,500 |
1-Amphetamine | 50,000 |
(+/-) 3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine (MDA) | 2,000 |
Interfering substances
Clinical urine samples may contain substances that could potentially interfere with the test. The following compounds were added to drug-free urine or drug positive urine with the concentration 50% below the cutoff and 50% above the cutoff, respectively. All potential interfering substances were added at a concentration of 100µg/mL (All concentrations were confirmed with GC/MS). The urine specimens were tested with the Rapid Amphetamine (AMP) Test. None of the urine samples showed any deviation from the expected results.

Effect of Urinary Specific Gravity
The specific gravity studies were conducted on different specific gravity including 1.002,1.010, 1.020, 1.030, 1.040 specimens with drug free urine or drug positive urine with the concentration at 50% below and 50% above cutoff level (All concentrations were confirmed with GC/MS). Each sample was tested by the corresponding Rapid Amphetamine (AMP) Test. The results demonstrate that varying ranges of urinary specific gravity do not affect the test result.
Effect of Urinary PH
The pH of an aliquot negative urine pool is adjusted to a pH range of 3 to 9 in 1 pH unit increments and spiked with each drug at 50% below and 50% above cutoff levels (All concentrations were confirmed with GC/MS). Each sample was tested by the corresponding Rapid Amphetamine (AMP) Test. The result demonstrate that varying ranged of PH do not interfere with the performance of the test.
