NeoSal™ Oral Fluid Collection System Item 25/Box #128101-25
Neogen is proud to announce the release of our NeoSal Oral Fluid Collection System. Our oral fluid collection system is designed
for maximum ease-of-use at the collection site and testing laboratory.
Oral Fluid Convenience
Non-invasive collection process that can be administered quickly virtually anytime or anywhere. High quality saliva collection alternative to Quantisal® by Immunalysis. Comprehensive Screen
Enables accurate testing for drugs of abuse, including marijuana, cocaine, PCP, opiates, and amphetamines – including Ecstasy (All included on standard panel).
Intercept can also be used to screen for Barbiturates, Benzodiazepines and Methadone. Your laboratory can set up drug combinations that work for your testing program. Reduced Tampering
Enables direct observation during collection process, which drastically reduces the opportunity for tampering and use of adulteration products. Elimination of Gender Issues
Offers non-invasive, oral fluid testing, which can be administered in any location, eliminating the need for private bathrooms and
same-sex test administrators. Laboratory Confidence
Delivers proven laboratory reliability and accuracy comparable to urine testing.
Fast and Simple Collection Procedure
Please see package insert for complete instructions.
Step 1: Swab
Swab for 3 to 4 minutes, with a maximum of 15 minutes.
Step 2: Snap
Slowly slide the collection device into the vial.
Step 3: Seal
1. Screw cap onto vial and apply seal.
2. Send to laboratory.
Confident Collection
- Sample Volume Adequacy Indicator (SVAI): Ensures appropriate and consistent sample volume is collected
- Stimulant-Free Collection Pad: Collects sufficient volume without artificial stimulants
- Quick Collection: Typical collection time is 1–2 minutes
Engineered Ease-of-Use
- Unique Collector Handle Design: Twists directly into the Buffer Tube avoiding sample contamination and preventing the need to break the pad from the handle
- No Additional Processing: No centrifugation or plunging necessary, discard collection pad and process sample
- Automation Friendly: Buffer tube fits onto most standard automated instrument sample racks (12 x 75), eliminating transfer to additional tube
- Additional Cap: Designed for long-term storage, stores in bottom of tube when not in use
Optimized Performance
- Oral Fluid ELISA kits: Optimized with the NeoSal, samples can be assayed without additional sample preparation
- Drug Recovery: Innovative proprietary buffer extracts adequate analyte concentration for consistent detection
- Sample Stability: Buffer contains microbial growth inhibitors and ensures stability of the sample during transport
Simple Collection Process
Peel open package and remove collector. Do not eat or drink at least 15 minutes prior to collection.
Step 2:
Pool saliva in mouth. Insert collector pad in mouth between cheek and gums.
When a distinct blue line forms, remove collector from mouth. Typical collection time is 1-2 minutes.
Remove blue cap and snap into bottom of the tube. Insert saturated collector pad into tube.
Tighten white cap. Gently invert tube 4 or 5 times. Send sample to testing laboratory.

Intercept® Oral Fluid Drug Test FAQs
The following are frequently asked questions about OraSure Technologies' Intercept® Oral Fluid Drug Test. For additional information, please call 404-840-8900.
- Which drugs can you detect in oral fluid?
The Intercept® oral fluid drug testing service can detect the NIDA-5 drug panel (marijuana, cocaine, opiates, amphetamines/methamphetamines, and PCP) which represent the most common drugs requested by employers for workplace drug testing. Additional drug tests include barbiturates, methadone and benzodiazepines.
- How does the detection window for oral fluid testing compare with other methods?
Just like traditional urine testing, the window in oral fluid testing is different for each drug. Of most significance is that oral fluid testing identifies recent usage - during the first four hours after drug use - that can be missed by urine testing. For most drugs, the window of detection in oral fluid is about one to three days. By contrast, urine testing relies on drug metabolites retained in the body's waste supply and may detect some drugs for a longer period.
- What methodology do you employ?
Oral fluid samples are first screened in a laboratory using enzyme immunoassay (EIA) technology, proven reliable for routine drug testing. Any samples that test positive in the screening process are then subjected to gas chromatography / mass spectrometry (GC/MS) or liquid chromatography/ mass spectrometry/ mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) , the latest in drug confirmation technology. This tandem "MS", as it is called, provides the most sensitive fingerprint of the drug target available.
- How is the data reported?
As with all laboratory-based testing, results are logged in a computerized information system and electronically reported to the designated party and Medical Review Officer, if appropriate.
- Can an oral fluid test be beaten?
We have studied a wide range of adulterants and have not found any that can beat our oral fluid drug test system. Of course, donors may attempt to introduce something onto the pad or collection vial. This risk is highly unlikely since every collection is directly and easily observed. Dilution tactics often employed to beat urine tests are not effective in oral fluid testing.
- Who collects the sample?
The beauty of oral fluid testing is that the donor collects his or her own sample under direct visual supervision. The donor places the collection pad in his or her cheek and gum for at least two minutes. Once the absorbent collection pad is saturated, it is placed in a vial, the handle of the collection device is snapped off at the rim of the vial, the vial is sealed, and the donor initials the seal. The entire process takes just 5 minutes.
- How much does it cost?
Oral fluid can be significantly less than traditional urine testing. The economic advantage of the Intercept® Oral Fluid Drug Test is that it can reduce the cost of collection processes, scheduling fees, and the need for same-gender personnel for observed collection.
- What is the turnaround time?
Most of our lab partners receive samples via overnight courier, tests them the day they arrive and reports negative results by early afternoon. Positive results are confirmed, reviewed and reported usually within 72 hours of receipt.
- Isn't oral fluid a hazardous fluid?
No. Because the testing methodology is not classified as a "dental process," OSHA does not consider oral fluid collections hazardous. In addition, oral fluid specimens are not subject to the same handling and disposal issues that face other body fluids.
- How do you know if you have enough sample to test?
If the donor keeps the collection pad in his or her mouth for at least two minutes, as indicated on the package, there is enough to test. The collection pad is treated with salts to stimulate oral fluid secretion, making the process very reliable. In fact, based on experience from life insurance testing, only 1 in 10,000 samples report as insufficient for testing.
