A tube or pipette-type element, such as a capillary tube or other tube element carries a drug identification system for a number of hypnotic-inducing drugs or anesthetic drugs. The drug identification system provides a visual indication of at least two or more drugs present in a liquid sample. The liquid sample is drawn into one end of the tube, moves along the tube, and functional materials and/or structure in the interior of the tube provide a visual indication of the presence of targeted contaminants (e.g., drugs) in the fluid sample. The design also minimizes or prevents any reflux of materials in the tube element back into the liquid or beverage from which the sample has been taken. An additional benefit of the system is safe disposal and moderate unit cost to the public.
A tube having a distal end and a proximal end, the distal end having an opening to a lumen within the tube,
A testing device for the presence of drugs in a liquid comprising an elongate tube with reactants therein, the tube having an open distal end and a proximal end, the distal open end leading to a lumen,
A tube having a distal end and a proximal end, the distal end having an opening to a lumen within the tube,
