Clinical Information
Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test

This test uses the simple screening technique that involves immunologic testing for drugs by class. All positive immunoassay screening results are confirmed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and quantitated before a positive result is reported.

 

This assay was designed to test for and confirm by GC-MS the following:

-Barbiturates

-Cocaine

-Tetrahydrocannabinol

 

This test is intended to be used in a setting where the test results can be used to make a definitive diagnosis.

Reference Values
Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.

Only orderable as part of profile. For more information see CSMPU / Controlled Substance Monitoring Panel, Random, Urine.

 

Negative

Screening cutoff concentrations:

Barbiturates: 200 ng/mL

Cocaine (benzoylecgonine-cocaine metabolite): 150 ng/mL

Tetrahydrocannabinol carboxylic acid: 50 ng/mL

 

This report is intended for use in clinical monitoring or management of patients. It is not intended for use in employment-related testing.

Interpretation
Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results

A positive result derived by this testing indicates that the patient has used one of the drugs detected by these techniques in the recent past. See individual tests (eg, COKEU / Cocaine and Metabolite Confirmation, Random, Urine) for more information.

 

For information about drug testing, including estimated detection times, see Drugs of Abuse Testing.

Cautions
Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances

Method Description
Describes how the test is performed and provides a method-specific reference

The barbiturate, cocaine metabolite, and tetrahydrocannabinol metabolite assays are based on the kinetic interaction of microparticles in a solution as measured by changes in light transmission. In the absence of sample drug, soluble drug conjugates bind to antibody-bound microparticles, causing the formation of particle aggregates. As the aggregation reaction proceeds in the absence of sample drug, the absorbance increases. When a urine sample contains the drug in question, this drug competes with the drug derivative conjugate for microparticle-bound antibody. Antibody bound to sample drug is no longer available to promote particle aggregation, and subsequent particle lattice formation is inhibited. The presence of sample drug diminishes the increasing absorbance in proportion to the concentration of drug in the sample. Sample drug content is determined relative to the value obtained for a known cutoff concentration of drug.(Package inserts: Roche Barbiturates. Roche Diagnostics; 11/2017, Cannabinoids.
