Intended Use
Liquichek Urine Toxicology Control is intended for use as a quality control urine to monitor the performance of laboratory urine toxicology confirmatory procedures.
Device Story
Liquichek Urine Toxicology Control is a liquid quality control product derived from human urine, supplemented with specific drugs, drug metabolites, preservatives (0.1% sodium azide), and stabilizers. It is designed for use in clinical laboratories to monitor the performance of urine toxicology screening and confirmatory procedures. The device is provided in liquid form, ready for use, and is stable for 30 days when stored at 2-8°C. Laboratory personnel use the control to verify the accuracy and precision of assay conditions during quantitative and qualitative analysis of patient urine specimens. By providing samples with known concentrations of drugs—ranging from levels near the limit of quantitation to elevated concentrations—the control allows clinicians to validate that their testing procedures are performing within expected parameters, thereby ensuring the reliability of patient drug testing results.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; bench testing only.
Technological Characteristics
Matrix: Human urine. Additives: Drugs, drug metabolites, preservatives (0.1% sodium azide), and stabilizers. Form: Liquid. Storage: 2-8°C. Stability: 30 days open vial at 2-8°C. No software or electronic components.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use as a quality control urine to monitor the performance of laboratory urine toxicology confirmatory procedures. No specific patient population, age, or gender restrictions apply as this is an in vitro diagnostic control product.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A clinical toxicology control material is a device intended to provide an estimation of the precision of a device test system and to detect and monitor systematic deviations from accuracy resulting from reagent or instrument defects. This generic type of device includes various single, and multi-analyte control materials.
