Methaqualone (Quaalude, Sopor) is a quinazoline derivative that was first synthesized in 1951 and found clinically effective as a sedative and hypnotic in 1956.10It soon gained popularity as a drug of abuse and in 1984 was removed from the US market due to extensive misuse. It is occasionally encountered in illicit form, and is also available in European countries in combination with diphenhydramine (Mandrax). Methaqualone is extensively metabolized in vivo principally by hydroxylation at every possible position on the molecule.The Methaqualoneassay contained within the MQL Rapid Test Panel yields a positive result when the MQL concentration exceeds 300ng/ml.

 

 

【DIRECTIONS FOR USE】

Test device (in closed pouches), samples, and controls should be brought to room temperature (15-30°C) prior to testing. Do not open pouches until ready to perform the assay.

Remove the test device from its protective pouch and label the device with patient’s identification or control label.

FOR SURFACES

1. Wipe with the panel over the surface in which the drugs are expected.

2. Take off the cap of supplied tube;

3. Fill all buffers from the supplied tube of buffer into the protection cover.

4. Insert the Multi Test slowly and carefully into the protection cover with buffer.

5. Wait for lines to appear on the membrane and read the results after 5 minutes and do not interpret the result after 10 minutes.

 

FOR SOLIDS

1. Open the tube and put the solid in to the buffer.

2. Close the tube with dropper and cap. Shake it a short time. Wait for 30 sec.

3. Take off the cap of supplied tube;

4. Fill all buffers with dissolved substances into the protection cover.

5. Insert the Multi Test slowly and carefully into the protection cover with buffer.

6. Wait for lines to appear on the membrane and read the results after 5 minutes and do not interpret the result after 10 minutes.
