Oral Fluid Laboratory Drug Testing

Origin Diagnostics is pleased to offer the innovative oral fluid collection system that simplifies the collection of oral samples for routine drug testing at Quest Diagnostics Laboratories. The Oral-Eze® Oral Fluid Collector provides all the advantages of previous collection systems, with the added benefit of our indicator window technology. The indicator window takes the guesswork out of collecting samples and turns blue when the sample quantity is sufficient for processing, thereby reducing repeat collections.

The advantages of Oral-Eze Indicator window assures sample adequacy. The patented collection device with built-in indicator window reduces the likelihood of the sample being rejected as “quantity not sufficient” and thereby reducing the time and expense associated with a second collection. No unpleasant taste.The Oral-Eze Oral Fluid Collector has no salty or citric taste.

Easy collection and fast turnaround. Sample collection with the Oral-Eze collector typically takes about five minutes. Testing is performed the day it arrives at our lab, with negative screening results reported the same day. Positive results are confirmed, reviewed, and typically reported within 72 hours of receipt.

By using oral fluid instead of urine, donors can collect and cap their own samples on-site and in the presence of a monitor, reducing the likelihood of a donor challenge later on. The Oral-Eze collector is a minimally-invasive, easy-to-use method that can be used for pre-employment, random, reasonable suspicion, return-to-duty and post-accident testing.

Specimen validity testing is available on every oral fluid specimen, giving you the added assurance that the specimen is appropriate for testing.
