Safety Strips Test Portfolio
Safety Strips offers a single, low-cost test strip that provides an affordable, reliable way for people to test substances for fentanyl and xylazine (popularly known as tranq), two dangerous adulterants that are exacerbating the already critical and growing opioid epidemic.
Safety Strips Fentanyl Test Strip (FTS) ISO 13485 validated product, is an easy-to-use lateral flow immunoassay designedto swiftly detect potent synthetic opioids, including 3-Methyl Fentanyl, Acetyl Fentanyl, Butyryl Fentanyl, Carfentanil, Fentanyl, Furanyl Fentanyl, Ocfentanil, Remifentanil, Sufentanil, Valeryl Fentanyl, and p-Fluoro Fentanyl.
To use the test, a trace amount of the sample substance is mixed with water. The test strip is then dipped into the liquid for 15 seconds. After waiting approximately five minutes, the results can be read. One line indicates fentanyl is present in the sample; two lines indicate a negative result. Test strips are the easiest, fastest, and most accurate way to detect ultra-low nanogram trace amounts of fentanyl or xylazine in powders, pills or injectables and can help prevent accidental overdoses.
