Indications for Use
The RapidSense™ Drugs of Abuse Cocaine (COC) 300 Device is a lateral flow competitive immunoassay intended for the qualitative detection of the cocaine metabolite, benzoylecgonine, in human urine at a cut-off concentration of 300 ng/mL. The assay is intended for use in professional laboratories by healthcare professionals. For In Vitro Diagnostic Use. This assay provides only a preliminary result. Clinical consideration and professional judgment should be applied to any drug of abuse test result, particularly in evaluating a preliminary positive result. To obtain a confirmed analytical result, a more specific alternate chemical method is needed. Gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy (GC/MS) is the recommended confirmatory method.
Device Story
RapidSense™ Drugs of Abuse Cocaine (COC) 300 Device is a lateral flow competitive immunoassay for qualitative detection of benzoylecgonine in human urine. Device consists of a plastic cassette housing a nitrocellulose lateral flow strip. Principle of operation: differential migration mechanism; free analyte competes with blue-colored latex-labeled antigen conjugates for antibody binding in a primary capture zone. If analyte is at/above 300 ng/mL, less antibody is available for conjugate binding; excess conjugate migrates to a secondary capture zone, forming a visible positive test line. If analyte is absent/below cutoff, conjugate binds in primary zone, resulting in no visible test line. Used in professional laboratories by healthcare professionals; visually read. Provides preliminary screening results; requires GC/MS confirmation. Benefits include rapid preliminary assessment of drug presence to guide clinical decision-making.
Clinical Evidence
Comparison study of 85 clinical urine specimens against GC/MS reference method. Results: 91.1% positive agreement (41/45), 95.2% negative agreement (40/42), and 93.1% total agreement (81/87).
Technological Characteristics
Lateral flow immunochromatographic assay. Materials: nitrocellulose and cellulose strip in plastic cassette. Dimensions: 5 x 76 mm strip; 2" x 4" cassette. Principle: competitive immunoassay with differential migration. Visual readout. No external energy source or instrumentation required. Stability testing per CEN 13640.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the qualitative detection of cocaine metabolite (benzoylecgonine) in human urine at a 300 ng/mL cut-off concentration. Intended for use by healthcare professionals in professional laboratory settings for preliminary drug screening.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A cocaine and cocaine metabolite test system is a device intended to measure cocaine and a cocaine metabolite (benzoylecgonine) in serum, plasma, and urine. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of cocaine use or overdose.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). A cocaine and cocaine metabolite test system is not exempt if it is intended for any use other than employment or insurance testing or is intended for Federal drug testing programs. The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9, provided the test system is intended for employment and insurance testing and includes a statement in the labeling that the device is intended solely for use in employment and insurance testing, and does not include devices intended for Federal drug testing programs (*e.g.,* programs run by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), the Department of Transportation (DOT), and the U.S. military).
