Keta/mine is a dissociative anesthetic developed in 1963 to replace
PCP (Phenc/yclidine). While Keta/mine is still used in human
anesthesia and veterinary medicine, it is becoming increasingly
abused as a street drug. Keta/mine is molecularly similar to PCP
and thus creates similar effects including numbness, loss of
coordination, sense of invulnerability, muscle rigidity, aggressive
/ violent behavior, slurred or blocked speech, exaggerated sense of
strength, and a blank stare.
There is depression of respiratory function but not of the central
nervous system, and cardiovascular function is maintained.
Keta/mine's duration of action in a clinical setting is 30 min to 2
h intramuscularly and 4–6 h orally.
Allow the test cassette, specimen, and/or controls to reach room
temperature (15-30ºC) prior to testing. Instruct the donor to not
place anything in the mouth including food, drink, gum or tobacco
products for at least 10 minutes prior to collection.
1. Bring the pouch to room temperature before opening it. Remove
the test cassette from the sealed pouch and use it within one hour.
2. Remove the collector from the sealed pouch and insert the sponge
end of the collector into the mouth. Actively swab the inside of
the mouth and tongue to collect oral fluid for a total of 3 minutes
until the sponge becomes fully saturated. Gentle pressing the
sponge between the tongue and teeth will assist saturation. No hard
spots should be felt on the sponge when saturated.
3. Remove the collector from the mouth. Place saturated oral fluid
collector into chamber and press sponge fully against the strainer
to collect oral fluid. Discard the collector. Snap the cap shut on
the collection tube.
4. Place the test cassette on a clean and level surface. Unscrew
cap cover from the collection tube. Invert the collection tube and
transfer 3 drops of oral fluid (approximately 120 µL) into specimen
well of the test cassette and start the timer. Avoid trapping air
bubbles in the specimen well. Place screw cap on the collection
tube. See illustration below.
5. Wait for the colored line(s) to appear. Read results at 10
minutes. Do not read results after 1 hour.
6. Apply the security seal over screw cap and send to the
laboratory for confirmation if necessary.
DIRECTIONS FOR DEVICE USE
Allow the test device, specimen, and/or controls to reach room
temperature (15-30ºC) prior to testing. Instruct the donor to not
place anything in the mouth including food, drink, gum or tobacco
products for at least 10 minutes prior to collection.
1. Remove the test device from the sealed pouch and use it within
one hour.
2. Take off the device cap and insert the absorbent wick to the
mouth, put it under the tongue to collect oral fluid until the
control line appears.
3. Put the device cap back outside of the absorbent wick and lace
the test device on a clean and level surface. See illustration
below.
4. Read results at 10 minutes. Do not read results after 15
minutes.
INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS
(Please refer to the illustration above)
NEGATIVE:* Two lines appear. One colored line should be in the control line region (C), and
another apparent colored line should be in the test line region
(T). A negative result indicates that the Synthetic Marijuana
metabolite concentration is below the detectable level (25ng/mL).
*NOTE: The shade of color in the test line region (T) may vary, but it
should be considered negative whenever there is even a faint
colored line.
POSITIVE: One colored line appears in the control line region (C). No line appears in the test line region (T). A positive result
indicates that the Keta/mine(KET) concentration exceeds the
detectable level (50 ng/mL).
INVALID: Control line fails to appear. Insufficient specimen volume or incorrect procedural techniques
are the most likely reasons for control line failure. Review the
procedure and repeat the test using a new test. If the problem
persists, discontinue using the lot immediately and contact your
local distributor.
