SYSTEMS AND METHODS TO DETERMINE BODY DRUG CONCENTRATION FROM AN ORAL FLUID |
摘要 |
Oral fluid for drug testing has several advantages over other specimens: (1) It may be collected noninvasively and under direct supervision; (2) its drug concentration reflects blood-drug concentrations; and (3) it can be processed by conventional drug screening and confirmation methods. This technology provides a system that measures the quantity of a drug (without needing a priori knowledge of the drug) in an oral fluid specimen and translates this level to a blood plasma drug concentration. The method first measures the concentration of a drug in an oral fluid sample. Next, a processor calculates the blood plasma concentration from the measured oral fluid drug concentration. Finally, this blood plasma drug level is utilized to calculate a total body drug concentration. |
