Abstract
The present invention provides a fluid collection and drug testing device that includes a fluid collector, to collect a fluid sample, and a housing to test and retain the fluid sample. The housing includes a collection chamber, having an open end to receive the fluid collector, at least one membrane test strip, in fluid communication with the collection chamber, to indicate the presence or absence of at least one test drug, and an immunoassay-based fingerprint acquisition pad, in fluid communication with the collection chamber, to positively identify the test subject and associate the test subject with the fluid sample.
Claims22
A fluid collection and drug testing device, comprising:
- a fluid collector to collect a fluid sample;
- and
- a housing, to test and retain the fluid sample, including:
- a collection chamber, having an open end, to receive the fluid collector,
- at least one membrane test strip, in fluid communication with the collection chamber, to indicate the presence or absence of at least one test drug, and
- an immunoassay-based fingerprint acquisition pad in fluid communication with the collection chamber.
A fluid collection and testing device, comprising:
- a fluid collector, to collect a fluid sample, including:
- a first disk, located at a distal end of a central shaft, having a first circumferential seal,
- a handle attached to an upper surface of the first disk,
- a second disk, located at a proximal end of the central shaft, having a second circumferential seal, and
- a sponge, attached to a lower surface of the second disk, to absorb the fluid sample;
- and
- a housing, including:
- a collection chamber, having an open end, to receive the fluid collector,
- at least one membrane test strip in fluid communication with the collection chamber, and
- an immunoassay-based fingerprint acquisition pad.
