| Description | The Amphetamine Direct ELISA Kit is a specific and sensitive in-vitro test to detect the presence of d-amphetamine in samples such as whole blood, oral fluids, serum, plasma and urine. While the assay will detect amphetamine use, interference by l-amphetamine and pseudo-ephedrine is virtually nonexistent. Amphetamine is a potent central nervous system stimulant. The (+)-isomer also referred to as d-amphetamine is three to four times more potent than the (-)-isomer, l-amphetamine (2). Amphetamine may be metabolized and excreted as the p-hydroxy isomer. Amphetamines act by inducing euphoria, irritability, anxiety and paranoia. Urinary excretion rates are influenced by the urinary pH with acidic urine favoring the excretion of unchanged drug(2). Up to 80% of a given dose may be excreted unchanged, especially in acid urine. Alkaline urine reduces the excretion of unchanged amphetamine to less than 5% of the dose. |
