## Indications for Use

The STC Methamphetamine Micro-Plate EIA is intended for use in the qualitative determination of methamphetamine in oral fluid collected with the EpiScreen™ Oral Specimen Collection Device. For In Vitro Diagnostic Use.

## Device Story

The STC Methamphetamine Micro-Plate EIA is an in vitro diagnostic assay designed for the qualitative detection of methamphetamine in oral fluid samples collected using the EpiScreen™ Oral Specimen Collection Device. The device utilizes an enzyme immunoassay (EIA) principle to identify the presence of the drug in the collected specimen. It is intended for use by laboratory professionals in a clinical setting. The output is a qualitative result indicating the presence or absence of methamphetamine, which assists healthcare providers in clinical decision-making regarding substance use. The device provides a diagnostic tool for the analysis of oral fluid specimens.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided in the document.

## Technological Characteristics

Enzyme immunoassay (EIA) micro-plate format for qualitative detection of methamphetamine in oral fluid. In vitro diagnostic device.

## Regulatory Identification

An amphetamine test system is a device intended to measure amphetamine, a central nervous system stimulating drug, in plasma and urine. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of amphetamine use or overdose and in monitoring levels of amphetamine to ensure appropriate therapy.

## Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls). An amphetamine 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).
