Abstract
Immunoassays are frequently used for an screening method to detect the presence of drugs in Urine. The main advantages of the method are well known -- simplicity of handling samples. rapidity. sensitivity. and specificity of analysis. However. it is also known that immunoassays exhibit cross-reactivity to related drugs and there are only limited specific immunoassays on the market. This study reports on the ability of TDx to detect urine samples obtained from suspects of taking over-the-counter medications and illegal drugs containing ATS. designer drugs. (omitted)
