Saliva test kits are all-in-one, convenient testing kits that offer a quick and non-invasive drug testing solution for workplaces, councils, construction workers, and more. These kits are designed to detect the presence of a number of drugs within minutes using a simple saliva sample. With their ease of use, quick results, and high accuracy, saliva test kits are a popular and reliable drug testing method across Australia.

How Does Saliva Drug Testing Kits Work?

We designed our saliva drug testing kits so they are simple to use and produce accurate results. Here’s a step-by-step process of how they work:

Sample Collection: Place a sample collection swab inside the mouth, typically under the tongue or along the gums and cheeks, to collect a saliva sample. All saliva drug testing kits sold at Drug Test Warehouse feature sample adequacy indicators so you can be sure you have collected enough saliva before proceeding. 

Introduction to the Testing Device: The collected sample is then introduced into the testing device (SoToxa, ToxCheck, ToxWipe, DrugCheck (3000). The device(s) contain reagents that react with specific drugs.

Chemical Reaction: If drugs are present, they bond  with the reagents in the testing device. This reaction causes a change in colour on the specific device you’re using.

Reading the Results: The results are displayed on the test kit, often within a few minutes. Most kits show results through lines that indicate either a negative or not-negative (positive) result for the presence of specific drugs.

Confirmation and Interpretation: Not-negative results may need further confirmation through more detailed laboratory tests, especially for legal or employment-related testing.
