IVD Test Reagent/Kits, Immunoassay, Drug-of-Abuse, Opiate
Definition : Immunoassay reagents intended to perform qualitative and/or quantitative analyses on a body fluid sample (typically urine) to determine natural or semisynthetic alkaloids derived from the unripe seeds of the poppy plant (i.e., opiates). Opiates are therapeutically useful due to their potent analgesic properties; they produce a state of sedation and/or euphoria, creating a high potential for abuse. Reagents for opiate determination (mostly their derivatives, such as morphine and codeine) in urine samples can detect drug metabolites up to four days after use. The presence of morphine in urine due to the administration of ethylmorphine as an antitussive drug should be considered; poppy seeds can also create false-positive opiates.
