This test detects cotinine; it does not directly detect tobacco products or determine the source, timing or amount of nicotine exposure. Nicotine exposure may come from cigarettes, vaping products, smokeless tobacco, nicotine pouches or nicotine-replacement products.

How to Perform the Test

Prepare the materialsAllow the sealed test and urine specimen to reach 59–86°F (15–30°C) before testing.

Open the pouchRemove the cassette from its sealed pouch and place it on a clean, level surface. Use the test as soon as possible.

Add the urine specimenHold the included dropper vertically and add three full drops, approximately 100 µL, to the specimen well. Avoid trapping air bubbles.

Start the timer and readRead the colored lines at 5 minutes. Do not interpret the test after 10 minutes.

Understanding the Test Results

NegativeTwo colored lines appear: one in the control region (C) and one in the test region (T). Any visible test line, even a faint line, is interpreted as negative.

Preliminary positiveOne colored line appears in the control region (C), and no line appears in the test region (T). A more specific analytical method should be used if confirmation is required.

InvalidNo control line appears. Repeat the test with a new cassette and review the package insert before retesting.

Professional-use notice: This product is labeled for professional in vitro diagnostic use only. The result is preliminary and should be interpreted together with other available information. The package insert identifies gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) as the preferred confirmatory method when confirmation is requested.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the ACCUTEST Urine Cotinine Test detect?

It qualitatively detects cotinine, the primary metabolite of nicotine, in human urine at a 200 ng/mL cutoff.

Does this test detect nicotine or tobacco directly?

No. The assay is designed to detect cotinine in urine. A result does not identify the nicotine source or distinguish cigarettes from vaping, smokeless tobacco, nicotine pouches or nicotine-replacement products.

What is the cutoff concentration?

The cutoff is 200 ng/mL of cotinine in human urine.

How quickly are results available?

Read the test at 5 minutes. Do not interpret the result after 10 minutes.

How much urine is required?

Add three full drops, approximately 100 µL, to the cassette’s specimen well using the included dropper.

What does a faint test line mean?

When the control line is present, any visible line in the test region is interpreted as negative, even if the line is faint.

Does a preliminary positive result require confirmation?

A preliminary positive result should be evaluated with other available information. If confirmation is required, use a more specific analytical method; the package insert identifies GC/MS as the preferred method.

Is this test intended for at-home self-testing?

No OTC or self-testing claim is included for this configuration. The package insert labels the product for professional in vitro diagnostic use only.

How many tests are included?

Each box contains 40 single-use test cassettes with disposable droppers and a package insert.
