Sending Presumptive Positive Specimens to the laboratory for GC/MS Confirmation

  1. Perform the on-site test according to the instructions provided above.
  2. Complete an Urine Drug Test Lab Requisition Form or Label to indicate which presumptive positive drugs you want to confirm through the lab. Make sure the donor signs the form. NOTE: If you wish to document preliminary positives and negatives for your own record, complete a Preliminary Result Form.
  3. Secure the positive specimen in the bottle. To prevent leakage, make sure the lid is threaded properly and tightly fastened.
  4. Place the security seal over the top of the RediCup.
  5. Fill out the Specimen ID/Chain of Custody Label and indicate the positive drug(s) on the line marked "GC/MS Confirm:___________".
  6. Place the label around the sides of the RediCup.
  7. Instruct the donor to initial the security seal.
  8. Seal the RediCup in a plastic baggie with the absorbent material.
  9. Include the “Lab Copy” of the Test Requisition Form in the shipping bag (five or more specimens) or the mailer box (fewer than five specimens) with the specimen.
  10. Send to RTL for GC/MS confirmation.

NOTE: If your account was not set up to include confirmation request forms, please contact your sales representative.
