# Intended Use
The Cozart RapiScan Oral Fluid Drug Test System - Opiates and Methadone is intended for Point of Care testing in a number of settings such as prescription workplace, drug dependency clinics, and criminal justice. It provides qualitative screening results for opiates and methadone in human oral fluid at a cut-off concentration equivalent to 40ng/mL and 30ng/mL respectively in neat oral fluid. The cozart collection system involves a 1:3 dilution of the oral fluid sample, this dilution factor is corrected for in the Cozart RapiScan Drug Test and therefore the remainder of this document will refer to the cut-offs as 13ng/mL for opiates and 10ng/ml for methadone.
This kit has to be used in conjunction with the Cozart RapiScan instrument. Please refer to the sampling and testing procedures in the instructions for use leaflet.
This assay is for professional use only and provides only a preliminary analytical test result. Clinical consideration and professional judgement must be applied to any drug of abuse test result, particularly in evaluating a preliminary positive result. In order to obtain a more confirmed analytical result a more specific alternative chemical method is needed. Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS) is the preferred confirmatory method.
# Where Used
The Cozart RapiScan opiates and methadone test is designed for point of care testing. All users of the test are trained by a Cozart representative, at the end of the training programme a certificate is issued.
# Design and Materials
As can be seen from the Principle of the Test section in the package insert, the Cozart RapiScan opiates and methadone test system is a point of care test for the detection of opiates and methadone in human oral fluid.
The Cozart RapiScan opiates and methadone test system is composed of three parts - the oral fluid collection device, the opiates and methadone test cartridge and the Cozart RapiScan instrument.
# 1. Oral fluid Collection Device
This device is composed of an oral fluid collector pad, a transport tube containing run buffer and a dispense filter tube. The oral fluid collection pad is manufactured by Oral fluid Diagnostic Systems Inc, New York, USA. It is composed of a white plastic handle and a cellulose pad with a perforated edge. The white plastic handle incorporates a sample adequacy indicator, when 1mL of oral fluid has been collected the indicator in the handle turns blue.
The dispense filter tube pushes the sample pad down to the bottom of the transport tube and assists in mixing the oral fluid and buffer. The top of the tube is partially sealed incorporating a dropper dispense facility into the top. Six drops of the sample are added to the cartridge with the dispense filter tube.
{2}------------------------------------------------
# 2. Opiate and Methadone Test Cartridge
This is composed of a white reaction strip with immobilized drug sites for opiates and methadone contained in a blue plastic casing. The cartridge also has a pad containing gold labeled anti-morphine and gold labeled anti-methadone antibodies. In addition, the cartridge has a built in control line of sheep anti-mouse IgG antibody to ascertain that complete lateral transfer of specimen has been achieved. The opiate and methadone test cartridge is a single use device which should be disposed of after use.
# 3. Cozart RapiScan Instrument
The Cozart RapiScan instrument is a battery-powered instrument whose function is to automate the analysis of the opiate/methadone test cartridge. It is a hand-held low voltage optical scanner (complies with Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Directive 89/336/EEC).
The cartridge is inserted into the machine for reading and is removed after the test has been read. Results are displayed on the screen as positive or negative. The Cozart RapiScan instrument must be used to read the cartridges, this eliminates the subjectivity of reading by eye.
The instrument is supplied with pre-printed non-disposable system test, positive QC and negative QC cartridges. The system test cartridge (labeled with SYS) is designed to test whether the instrument is functioning correctly. This should be performed at regular intervals throughout the use of the machine or when the instrument has been manhandled eg. dropped. The instrument displays SYSTEM TEST PASS or SYSTEM TEST FAIL on the screen of the instrument. The positive and negative OC cartridges (labeled with POC and NOC) should be analysed at regular intervals in the same way as a test sample.
# Performing the Test
A oral fluid sample is collected from the mouth by placing the sample pad under the tongue ensuring the pad is pointing downwards. This process can take from 1-10 minutes. Once the indicator in the sample pad has turned blue and 1mL of oral fluid has been collected the sample pad is removed from the mouth and placed into the transport tube. The pad is removed from the plastic handle along the perforated edge. The dispense filter tube is pushed into the transport tube purple end down until the sample pad is pushed to the bottom of the tube. The sample is then ready for testing.
The opiates and methadone test cartridge is removed from its foil pouch and placed on a flat surface. The transfer tube is carefully and very slowly inverted until it is horizontal. To add the sample, gently squeeze the end of the filter tube transferring 6 drops of sample into the cartridge. Once the liquid has appeared in the cartridge window, this takes between 2 and 60 seconds, the cartridge is then inserted into the Cozart RapiScan instrument. Pressing the start button initiates the timer to countdown 6 minutes after which the instrument automatically reads the cartridge and displays the results on the instrument screen. The results are displayed as positive or negative.
{3}------------------------------------------------
The Cozart RapiScan test cartridge and sample collection device are designed for use with the Cozart RapiScan instrument. The cartridges must be read with the instrument and not by eye. In addition to the quality control cartridges supplied with the instrument, other quality control specimens with known drug concentrations should be run through the test procedure following appropriate federal, state and local guidelines concerning the running of external quality controls. These are not supplied with the Cozart RapiScan opiates and methadone test system.
# Interpreting the Result
The result is displayed on the screen of the Cozart RapiScan instrument as positive or negative. This means that the diluted sample has methadone or an opiate present. The dilution factor should be taken into consideration when interpreting the results, that is, 1mL of oral fluid is diluted in 2mL of Cozart RapiScan buffer (x3 dilution factor). 10ng/mL of methadone in a diluted sample will produce a positive result, this is equivalent to 30ng/mL in neat oral fluid. Similarly, 13ng/mL of morphine will produce a positive result, this is equivalent to 40ng/mL morphine in neat oral fluid. The test provides only a preliminary result and in order to obtain a more confirmed result Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS) analysis should be performed.
# Performance:
# Method Comparison
The method comparison study using the Cozart RapiScan Opiates and Methadone test system was performed at Cozart Bioscience Ltd by Cozart Bioscience staff. The GC/MS was performed by FSS Chepstow UK, University of Glasgow, Scotland, and The Analytical Laboratory at Cozart Bioscience Ltd, UK.
A total of 454 Oral fluid samples were tested in the Cozart RapiScan Drug Test System according to the package insert.
99 samples from drug users enrolled at a drug rehabilitation clinic, were positive for opiates by the Cozart RapiScan System, of these samples 93 were confirmed positive by GC/MS. The GC/MS employs the set cut-off of 40ng/mL for Opiates in neat oral fluid.
124 samples were negative for opiates, 123 of these samples were confirmed negative by GC/MS. Of the negative samples 103 were from drug free volunteers, and the remaining 21 were from known drug users.
24 of all samples tested were within +50% to - 50% of the opiate cut-off. Of these, 14 had been previously diluted with blank saliva to give a concentration within the range of 60ng/mL to 20ng/mL.
116 samples from drug users enrolled at a drug rehabilitation clinic, were positive for Methadone by the Cozart RapiScan System and 116 were confirmed positive by GC/MS. The GC/MS employs the set cut-off of 30ng/mL for Methadone in neat oral fluid
{4}------------------------------------------------
115 samples were negative in the Cozart RapiScan System and were confirmed negative by GC/MS. 102 of these samples were from drug free volunteers, and the remaining 13 were from known drug users.
24 of all samples tested were within -50% to +50% of the methadone cut-off. Of these, 20 had previously been diluted with blank saliva to give a concentration within the range 45ng/mL to 15ng/mL.
# Precision
Four oral fluid samples were tested in duplicate every day for twenty days. The samples were a negative sample spiked with drug at the cutoff concentration and negative samples spiked to 50% above and below the cutoff.
| Opiate | Opiate Concentration (ng/mL) | | | |
|----------|------------------------------|-----|----|------|
| | 0 | 6.5 | 13 | 19.5 |
| Positive | 0 | 0 | 40 | 40 |
| Negative | 40 | 40 | 0 | 0 |
Acceptable results were obtained as can be seen in the table below:
| Methadone | Methadone Concentration (ng/mL) | | | |
|-----------|---------------------------------|----|----|----|
| | 0 | 5 | 10 | 15 |
| Positive | 0 | 0 | 40 | 40 |
| Negative | 40 | 40 | 0 | 0 |
To check whether the use of the Cozart RapiScan Drug Test System Opiates/Methadone might be somehow influenced by a testing environment different from a laboratory setting, and by being used by untrained personnel, an extended Precision Study was conducted at 3 Point Of Care sites. Four oral fluid samples were collected from drug free volunteers and aliquots were fortified with Morphine and Methadone at the concentrations shown below just prior to onsite testing. The samples were tested up to 9 times for each site. The table below shows the results obtained.
| Opiate | Opiate Concentration (ng/mL) | | | |
|----------|------------------------------|-----|----|------|
| | 0 | 6.5 | 13 | 19.5 |
| Positive | 0 | 0 | 25 | 25 |
| Negative | 25 | 26 | 1 | 0 |
| Methadone | Methadone Concentration (ng/ml) | | | |
|-----------|---------------------------------|----|----|----|
| | 0 | 5 | 10 | 15 |
| Positive | 0 | 0 | 24 | 23 |
| Negative | 25 | 26 | 2 | 2 |
# Sensitivity
Eight negative oral fluid samples fortified with morphine and methadone at 50% above the cutoff concentration were serially diluted in increments of 25% of the cutoff concentration of the assay. The lowest concentration of drug detected above the detection cutoff is the detection limit. The detection limit for opiates is between 9.75ng/ml (-25% of the cut off value) and 6.5ng/ml (-50% of the cut off value) and for
{5}------------------------------------------------
methadone is between 7.5ng/ml (-25% of the cut off value) and 5ng/ml (-50% of the cut off value).
# Specificity
The specificity can be defined as the extent to which related or unrelated compounds cross-react with the antibody employed in the assay. Twenty-eight potentially interfering substances were tested at 100,000ng/mL for cross-reactivity in the Cozart RapiScan opiates and methadone test and none were found to cross-react. Burrenorphine was tested at 10.000ng/mL due to the stock solution being at 100,000ng/mL.
The lowest concentration to produce a positive was determined for a number of related substances. Thirteen different members of the opiate family were tested morphine, 6-monoacetylmorphine, codeine, dihydrocodeine, nalorphine, oxycodone, hydromorphone, hydrocodone, oxymorphone, norcodeine, heroin and morphine-3-glucuronide. Similarly, methadone and three of its metabolites were 1-x-acetylmethadol (LAAM). 2-ethylidene-1.5-dimethyl-3.3tested diphenylpyrrolidine (EDDP), 2-ethylidene-5-methyl-3.3-diphenylpyrroline (EMDP). This experiment was carried out on three different batches of opiate/methadone test cartridges.
# Cutoff Concentration
The cutoff concentration was determined by preparing 8 fortified oral fluid samples at the cutoff concentration. 50% above and below the cutoff concentrations and 100% above and below the cutoff concentrations. All the samples fortified at 50% below the cutoff were negative for both methadone and opiates. All the samples fortified at the cutoff concentration. 50% above and below the cutoff concentration and 100% above and below the cutoff concentration were positive for both opiates and methadone.
#### Interference Studies
A range of parameters including sample adequacy indicator dye, haemoglobin, smoking, coffee, tea, water, food, orange juice, hard candy, chewing gum and mouthwash were tested for interference in the Cozart RapiScan opiates and methadone test system. No interference was observed with any of the parameters.
#### Sample Stability
Samples were collected from volunteers, two were fortified with morphine and methadone at 50% above the cutoff and two were fortified with morphine and methadone at 50% below the cutoff concentration. The fortified samples and also two negative samples were then stored at both room temperature and 2-8°C and tested at day 0. 3. 7. 14. 21 and 28 in the Cozart RapiScan opiates and methadone test system. Samples are stable at both room temperature and 2-8°C for 28 days.
{6}------------------------------------------------
#### Freeze/Thaw Stability
Samples were collected from volunteers, two were fortified with morphine and methadone at 50% above the cutoff and two were fortified with morphine and methadone at 50% below the cutoff concentration. The fortified samples and also two negative samples were then subjected to six freeze/thaw cycles at -20°C before testing in the Cozart RapiScan opiates and methadone test system. Samples can undergo up to six freeze/thaw cycles prior to testing.
# Time of Day Comparison
This experiment was designed to investigate whether sampling at different times of the day would have an effect on the results obtained with the Cozart RapiScan opiates and methadone test. Samples were collected from four volunteers at three different times of the day - morning, midday and evening. The morning sample was taken before breakfast. the midday sample was taken before lunch and the evening sample before bed. Each sample was then fortified with morphine and methadone at 50% above and below the cutoff concentration and tested. Sampling at different times of the day had no effect on the results obtained with the Cozart RapiScan opiates and methadone test system.
#### Instrument Comparison
This experiment was designed to investigate whether different instruments would produce different results with the Cozart RapiScan opiates and methadone test system. Samples were collected from four volunteers and spiked with morphine and methadone at 50% above and below the cutoff concentration then tested. All the testing was performed by a single operator with the same set of samples to ensure the only variable was the instrument. All three instruments produced unambiguous results.
# Operator Comparison
This experiment was designed to ensure that the Cozart RapiScan opiates and methadone test system is not sensitive to operator effects. Samples were collected from four volunteers and fortified with morphine and methadone at 50% above and below the cutoff concentration. The samples were tested by inexperienced operators with the same instrument. The results for each sample were unambiguous for all three operators.
#### Accuracy/Recovery
Samples were collected from four volunteers and fortified with morphine and methadone at 50% above and below the cutoff concentration. This gave samples from four individuals at three concentrations - 0, 6.5 and 19.5ng/mL for morphine and 0, 5 and 15ng/mL for methadone. To these samples drug was added at 50% above and below the cutoff concentration, at the cutoff concentration and 100% above the cutoff concentration. The samples were tested in the Cozart RapiScan opiates and methadone test system. All samples were positive with the exception of the negative sample fortified with drug at 50% below the cutoff concentration as expected.
{7}------------------------------------------------
#### New Filter Tube
This experiment was designed to ensure that the sample testing volume from the new plunger. Previous testing showed that four drops from the old plunger were equal, on average, to six drops from the new plunger. Four different operators, weighted two sample each, one with the old system and one with the new system. This operation was repeated ten times. The balance used was a FX-40 AND Electronic balance [(d=0.0001g) serial no. 05704015], which is periodically calibrated according to Standard Operating Procedures. The results show no significant difference in weight between the two systems.
# Chemical Safety
The sample collection contains Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) obtained from a BSE free source. The cartridges are composed of a nitrocellulose membrane which may explode at high temperatures.
# Human Factors
There are no human factors incorporated in any of the kit components.

1. Search: exact and fuzzy
Type a phrase like "coronary artery calcification" into the search box. You get two kinds of results. Exact results match the literal phrase — prefix searches work ("coronary artery calcificati") but suffix searches do not. Fuzzy results match on the meaning and intent of your phrase rather than the exact words, and are sorted by relevance score. Hover over the Exact or Fuzzy badge on any row to see exactly why it matched.
Use the checkboxes above the results to narrow: SaMD keeps only software-only devices, AI / ML keeps only devices with AI.
Exact vs. fuzzy search: what's the difference?
Exact matches on the literal phrase (prefix search works, suffix does not). Fuzzy matches on the meaning and intent of the phrase rather than the exact words. Hover over the badge on any row to see why it matched.
You search "coronary artery calcification" and want only software devices with AI. What two filters do you apply?
Narrow by SaMD (software-only devices), then narrow by AI/ML (devices with AI).

Output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, development dataset description, and test dataset description. It's the same format we use for regulatory strategy output and Fast 510(k) input, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. AI-generated but reliable in practice.
3. Judging fuzzy relevance
Fuzzy results trail off in relevance as you scroll. Use three signals to decide how far down to go: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether your target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, you're past the relevant zone. A top hit with a low score (~0.4) and a stretched explanation is a hint the closest predicates are far away — the project may be headed for De Novo. Note the fuzzy search is a pattern match: it doesn't handle negation ("not") well, and hardware devices can appear — filter by SaMD/AI ML to cut them.
How do you judge how far down fuzzy search results to go?
Use the relevancy signals: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether the target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, results are trailing off in relevancy.
4. Device detail page: chat and citations
Click a device name to open its detail page: device facts on the left, a chat window on the right. Ask something like "Describe the training data". The answer carries little citation bubbles — click one to jump to the highlighted passage in the source PDF, so you can verify every AI answer against the document. There's also a Download PDF button for sharing.
How do you verify an AI chat answer on the device detail page?
Click the citation bubbles to jump to the relevant highlight in the source document.
Reading rule for every project: how many summaries do you read in full?
At least the three most relevant 510(k) or De Novo summaries, in full. After that, use targeted chat questions to confirm your memory quickly. The tool supports this professional habit — it doesn't replace it.
5. Side-by-side comparison
Select multiple rows in the results table (aim for under ~10), then open the PDF Viewer tab. Ask one question — it goes to all selected devices in parallel, each with citations. This is the fastest way to compare and contrast devices: training data, PCCP scope, how they handled adding new scanners, and so on.
What does the side-by-side PDF viewer mode do?
Select multiple devices, open the PDF viewer tab, and ask one question (e.g., "Describe the training data"). It queries all selected devices simultaneously with citations, so you can compare and contrast quickly.
6. Collections
With rows selected, go to the Collections tab and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). Reload that selection any time — before a client call, pull up the collection and ask questions across all of its devices at once.
How do you save a set of selected devices for later use?
Select the rows, go to the Collections tab, and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). You can reload the selection anytime and carry it into the PDF viewer and other tabs that support selections.
7. Product codes and the regulations tree
Click a product code in the results to jump to it in the regulations tree — identification text, sibling product codes, and devices you can open in a PDF viewer on the right. Click a regulation number to see its identification, special controls, and related product codes. You can also search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree. Always read the special controls if any exist for your device — it broadens your search and sharpens pre-kickoff research.
What can you do from the regulations tree view?
Browse product codes and regulation numbers, read the identification text and special controls, browse sibling product codes, open device PDFs on the right, and search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree.
8. Chart view
Click Show Chart and segment by regulation number (or product code) to see which regulations dominate your result set. Clicking a regulation takes you into the regulations tree. Great for spotting that most matches are, say, hardware laparoscopic devices — a cue to go back and filter.
How do you see which regulations dominate a search result set?
Click "Show Chart" and segment by Regulation Number. Clicking a regulation takes you to the regulations tree.
9. The predicate graph
Open the Predicates tab for a family-tree view of predicate relationships. Click a node to trace its parents and children; selections from search carry over pre-selected. Commonly predicated devices are worth reading — a lot of people predicated them for a reason. The visual lineage is also handy on client calls, e.g. to show how a predicate family evolved and justify why your predicate still holds.
In the predicate graph, why are commonly predicated devices worth reading?
A lot of people predicated them for a reason. Clicking a node traces parents and children, and selections from search carry over pre-selected.
10. Embeddings: the galaxy map
The Embeddings tab plots every matching document in a 2-D "galaxy map" where semantically similar devices cluster together. Hover or click clusters to explore, and let AI label the clusters for you. Embeddings beat product codes for grouping: two devices can carry different product codes (LLZ vs. QIH) yet do the same thing — the embedding captures the meaning of the intended use and device story. This is also exactly how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) works under the hood, and it makes a great visual on client calls.
Try it yourself
Head to the search page and work through a few of these AI/ML fuzzy searches to build intuition: perivascular fat on CT · aortic valve calcification opportunistic screening on noncontrast CT · breast cancer prediction on digital pathology slides · autism detection · gestational age prediction · a hearing aid that can also detect a pulse · foundation model based analysis of ECG · large language models · penetration test. Watch how the relevance scores, intended use, and AI Performance tables tell you when results stop being meaningful.
