- Panel range – Single drug cards to 12 drug panels
- Read time – Results in 5 minutes
- Packaging – 25 cards per box
About This Urine Dip Card
Dip cards are the original point of collection format, and they stay popular because the workflow is simple and the administrator remains in control of the device at every step. The donor provides urine in a collection cup, staff dip the card, and results read at five minutes and can be photocopied for the record. Configurations cover single analytes such as amphetamine, buprenorphine, cocaine, THC and oxycodone, plus panels from five to twelve drugs.
Dx configurations add specimen validity combinations that include creatinine, glutaraldehyde, nitrite, oxidants, pH and specific gravity. CLIA waived options run through the line, and each option label states the panel and waived status for that card. All results are preliminary, with GC/MS or LC/MS-MS as the preferred confirmatory methods.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is a dip card test run?
The donor provides urine in a collection cup, the administrator dips the card, and results read at five minutes. The administrator stays in control of the card throughout the procedure.
Which single drug cards are offered?
Single cards cover amphetamine, buprenorphine, cocaine, ecstasy, marijuana, methamphetamine, morphine, opiates, oxycodone, propoxyphene and tricyclic antidepressants. Each option label names the analyte for that card.
What validity checks do Dx cards add?
Dx configurations combine creatinine, glutaraldehyde, nitrite, oxidants, pH and specific gravity checks in the sets stated on each label. These checks flag diluted or adulterated specimens before a result is reported.
Do positive results need confirmation?
Yes. Dip card results are preliminary analytical results only. Chromatography mass spectrometry methods such as GC/MS or LC/MS-MS are the preferred confirmatory methods.
How can I tell this is the real iScreen line?
Each dip card configuration is listed under its Abbott Toxicology catalog number with its panel and waived status stated. Cards ship in original manufacturer packaging through the authorized distributor.
