Crime laboratories are
so busy that drug tests take too long. With the cooperation
of the Prosecuting Attorney, many police agencies have turned
to presumptive drug testing. If the results indicate that an
illegal substance is present, criminal charges may be filed.
How to use a NIK®
drug test kit
The NIK® Pouches contain
one, two or three chemical ampoules in a heavy-duty plastic
pouch. This eliminates the need for measuring, mixing and dispensing
of reagents. Just place a small sample of the suspected drug
in the pouch, break the ampoules and watch for the color change.
A positive color indicator on the pouch will help to interpret
the reaction.
Testing an Unknown or
Suspect Material
Each specifically-designed
NIK® Pouch contains the chemicals required to perform the
presumptive test in pre-filled, hermetically sealed glass ampoules.
These ampoules are held together by a plastic bar in heavy-duty
plastic pouches in which the actual chemical reaction is done.
This bar holds the ampoules in the proper order for performing
the color test.
The sample size of the
suspected drug should be the amount of powder held on the large
end of a flat toothpick. The NIK® Pouches come with a Loading
Device designed to measure the exact amount needed for the testing
procedure. Just place this small sample of the suspected drug
in the pouch, break the ampoules in the order indicated by the
instructions, agitate, wait and watch for the color change(s).
Once the ampoule is broken, do not continue to "mash" the pouch.
This could cause a tear in the pouch from the broken glass.
A positive color indicator
is printed on the pouch. To see the color properly, hold the
pouch steady in front of a white piece of paper.
For any test, there are
four important factors to look for:
Color
Change or absence of color
Intensity of the color
Location of the colors in the test
pack
