A “one-device” system and method for collecting, extracting testing, and confirming various constituents in fluids is described. Particularly, it relates to the detection of various drugs of abuse in bodily fluids. More particularly, it collects and performs assay of a human's saliva, sweat, urine or other bodily fluid sample to test and/or confirm for drugs of abuse. In a preferred embodiment, the bodily fluid is collected via a collection end of the device, a series of pressure heads inside the cap of the collection device forces the sample, as the collection end of the device passes through the pressure heads, into the core of an immunoassay system containing diagnostic strips for illegal drug detection. Furthermore, a portion of the sample is retained in a confirmation sample retention well, which is seal from the outside, allowing some samples to be sent, such as to a laboratory, for testing later.
