Device Story
Lateral flow immunochromatographic assays for qualitative detection of Propoxyphene, Nortriptyline, and EDDP in human urine; competitive binding principle using monoclonal mouse antibodies. Available in strip, cassette, dip card, and cup formats. Used in clinical or home settings by healthcare professionals or lay users. Urine sample migrates via capillary action; target drug competes with drug-conjugate for antibody binding sites. Absence of test line indicates drug presence above cutoff; presence of line indicates drug absence or concentration below cutoff. Control line confirms proper test performance. Results are preliminary; require GC/MS confirmation. Assists in identifying potential drug use; clinical judgment required for interpretation.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Precision studies (25 days, 3 operators) and method comparison studies (80 clinical samples vs GC/MS) performed. Lay-user study (n=1680) conducted across three sites with diverse demographics (ages 21->50) confirmed performance across all formats. Interference and specificity testing verified no cross-reactivity with common substances.
Technological Characteristics
Lateral flow chromatographic immunoassay; monoclonal anti-mouse antibody-dye conjugate with gold chloride; fixed drug-protein conjugates; anti-mouse IgG polyclonal antibody; visual readout; no instrumentation required; shelf life 24 months at 4-30°C.
Indications for Use
Indicated for qualitative detection of Propoxyphene (300 ng/mL), Nortriptyline (1000 ng/mL), and EDDP (300 ng/mL) in human urine. Intended for prescription and OTC use to provide preliminary screening results. Not for distinguishing between prescription use and abuse.

L. Test Principle:
Healgen Propoxyphene Test, Healgen Nortriptyline Test and Healgen EDDP Test are rapid tests for the qualitative detection of Propoxyphene, Nortriptyline and EDDP in urine samples. Each assay test is a lateral flow chromatographic immunoassay. Each assay uses a monoclonal anti-mouse antibody -dye conjugate against the drugs containing gold chloride and fixed drug-protein conjugates and anti-mouse IgG polyclonal antibody in the test membranes.
When the absorbent end of the test is immersed into the urine specimen, the urine is absorbed into the device by capillary action, mixes with the antibody-dye conjugate, and flows across the pre-coated membrane. When sample drug levels are zero or below the target Cut-Off, antibody-dye conjugate binds to the drug-protein conjugate immobilized in the Test Region (T) of the device. This produces a colored Test line that, regardless of its intensity, indicates a negative result.
When sample drug levels are at or above the target Cut-Off, the free drug in the sample binds to the antibody-dye conjugate preventing the antibody-dye conjugate from binding to the drug-protein conjugate immobilized in the Test Region (T) of the device. This prevents the development of a distinct colored band in the test region, indicating a preliminary positive result.
To serve as a procedure control, a colored line will appear at the Control Region (C), if the test has been performed properly because of the antibody-dye conjugate binding to anti-mouse IgG immobilized in the Control Region(C) of the device.
M. Performance Characteristics (if/when applicable):
1. Analytical performance:
a. Precision/Reproducibility:
The precision performance of the Healgen Propoxyphene Test, Healgen Nortriptyline Test and Healgen EDDP was evaluated using 3 lots for each format (Strip, Cassette, Cup, Dip Card) of the device by three operators. For each concentration, tests were performed two runs per day for 25 days by three different operators for each format of devices. The testing consisted of analyzing samples in 2 runs per day for 25 days (n = 50 per lot) and by spiking drug free urine samples to achieve 100% cut off, -75% cut off, -50% cut off, -25% cut off, +25% cut off, +50% cut off, +75% cut off and +100% cut off drug concentrations. Each drug concentration was confirmed by GC/MS. Results are summarized below for each lot and device.

Specific Gravity and pH studies:
Twelve urine samples with specific gravity ranges (1.000-1.035) were collected and spiked with each drug at 25% below and 25% above cutoff levels. Each sample was tested using three lots of each format of the test devices. The results showed that a specific gravity range of 1.000 to 1.035 does not affect the accuracy of the tests.
A negative urine pool was adjusted to a pH range of 4.00 to 9.00 in 1 pH unit increments and was spiked with each drug at 25% below and 25% above cutoff levels. Samples were tested using three lots of each format of the devices, and results showed that urine pH range of 4.00 to 9.00 does not affect the accuracy of the tests.
f. Assay cut-off:
The characterization of how the device performs analytically around the claimed cutoff concentration of 300 ng/mL Propoxyphene, 1000 ng/mL Nortriptyline, and 300 ng/mL EDDP is described in the precision section, M.1.a. above.
{14}
2. Comparison studies:
a. Method comparison with predicate device:
The method comparison for the Healgen Propoxyphene Test, Healgen Nortriptyline Test and Healgen EDDP Test was performed internally against the reference method, GC/MS. Operators ran 80 unaltered urine samples on each format of the devices, where each device format was tested by an independent set of three operators. The samples were masked and randomized prior to testing and device results were compared to GC/MS. The results are presented in the table below:
Propoxyphene

A total of 204 females and 356 males tested the Propoxyphene samples, 213 females and 347 males tested the Nortriptyline samples and 209 females and 351 males tested the EDDP samples. They had diverse educational and professional backgrounds and ranged in age from 21 to >50 years. Urine samples were prepared at the following concentrations; negative, +/-75%, +/-50%, +/-25% of the cutoff by spiking drugs into drug free-pooled urine specimens. The concentrations of the samples were confirmed by GC/MS. Each sample was aliquoted into individual containers and blind-labeled. Each participant was provided with the package insert, 1 blind labeled sample and a device. The results are summarized below.
