Description
The Abbott Quantisal II Oral Fluid Collection Device collects the A and B specimens a regulated program needs from one observed collection, splitting two samples with a single device. Federal workplace programs gain a split specimen workflow that meets SAMHSA and DOT oral fluid guidelines without collecting twice.
- Design – Split specimen collection, A and B samples from one device
- Samples – Two 4 mL tubes with 1 mL oral fluid and 3 mL buffer each
- Standards – Meets SAMHSA and DOT oral fluid guidelines, FDA 510(k) cleared
- Packaging – 25 devices per box
About This Split Specimen Collection Device
Regulated drug testing runs on the split specimen: the A sample is tested, and the B sample waits sealed in case the donor challenges the result. The Quantisal II builds that safeguard into one collection, separating into two pads that each deliver a 4 mL sample of 1 mL oral fluid and 3 mL preservative buffer. Indicators on both sides turn blue when each pad has collected its full volume.
Abbott describes the device as the first commercially available oral fluid device with split specimen capability, and it is a proprietary FDA 510(k) cleared device. Collection is non invasive and gender neutral under observation, and both tubes ship at ambient temperature by overnight courier to the laboratory. This listing covers the dual collection DOT configuration under catalog number QSII-0025.

Why Choose This Product
A challenged result without a sealed B specimen is a program failure, and collecting twice doubles donor time and error risk. One device that splits the specimen at collection closes both problems at once.
- Retest rights protected – The B specimen is sealed at collection, ready if a result is challenged
- Half the collection time – One observed collection produces both specimens
- Federal program fit – Design meets SAMHSA and DOT oral fluid guidelines
- Volume verified – Blue indicators confirm each pad reached its target volume
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the split collection work?
The donor holds the collector under the tongue until the indicators on both sides turn completely blue, which signals 1 mL of oral fluid per pad. The collector is then separated into two pads, and each pad is sealed into its own transport tube as specimen A and specimen B.
How long does collection take?
Collection can take from 2 to 10 minutes once saliva has accumulated. The manufacturer procedure asks the donor to refrain from eating, drinking or smoking for at least 10 minutes before collection.
Is the device cleared for regulated testing?
The Quantisal II is a proprietary FDA 510(k) cleared device that meets SAMHSA and DOT mandatory guidelines for federal workplace drug testing programs using oral fluid. It is intended for observed collections.
How are specimens shipped?
Both tubes ship at ambient temperature by overnight courier to the laboratory as soon as possible after collection. Studies on representative samples support temperature excursions from minus 20 degrees C to 40 degrees C for up to 24 hours.
