FAQs About Specimen Cups with Temperature Strips
1. What is the purpose of the temperature strip on a specimen cup?
The temperature strip instantly verifies whether the urine sample is within the valid temperature range (90°F–100°F), ensuring the sample has not been tampered with.
2. Are these cups reusable?
No. For safety and accuracy, specimen cups with temperature strips are single-use items. Reusing them risks contamination and invalidates results.
3. Can specimen cups detect synthetic urine?
Yes. Built-in temperature strips can identify synthetic or substituted urine by measuring abnormal temperatures. If the sample falls outside the standard range, it may indicate tampering.
4. Do temperature strips work fast?
Yes. Temperature readings are visible within 2 minutes, and administrators should check them within 4 minutes for accurate results.
5. Is it beneficial to buy specimen cups in bulk?
Absolutely. Facilities conducting frequent drug tests benefit from cost savings, convenience, and a consistent supply when purchasing in bulk.
