ODV Test Pouches/Kit Refill Pouches

ODV-908

The testing of suspected drugs by most crime laboratories can take several weeks. Because of this delay, and with the cooperation of Prosecuting Attorneys, many police agencies have now turned to presumptive drug testing kits. If the results of the presumptive drug test indicate an illegal substance, criminal charges may be filed. The substance can then be sent to the crime laboratory for gas chromatography/mass spectrometry confirmation.

ODV Test Pouches/Kit Refill Pouches consist of a heavy-duty, flexible plastic pouch which contains prefilled, hermetically sealed glass ampoules held together by a plastic harness. A drug loading device is supplied with each pouch. The glass ampoules contain a premeasured volume of the required chemicals to preform the test.

Reagent shelf life is indefinite if stored out of direct sunlight and at room temperature.

Tube kits are also available. Please call our customer service department for pricing.

All tests are provided in 10-kit boxes with the exception of Test 928 – GHB, which is provided in 5-kit boxes.

Bath Salts are a chemical formulation that produce a number of reactions similar to cocaine or amphetamines when ingested. They can cause severe hallucinations, delusions, suicidality, and agitation in addition to physical symptoms like chest pain, increased blood pressure, and increased pulse. Unfortunately, there is no way to determine if a person has taken this drug unless s/he lets someone know.

In September 2011, the DEA invoked emergency scheduling authority to control three chemicals used in the creation of bath salts, and the plan is to make these drugs illegal. Currently, they are still legal in several states.

Testing by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement Crime Laboratory has determined that the main chemical used in creating bath salts, Methylenedioxypyrovalerone (MPDV), can be presumptively detected with the use of three kits. Because the kits also test for other substances, it is advised to use all three kits to avoid confusion with other substances.

ODV Test Instructions: 

In order to test an unknown substance, simply slide off the pouch clip and, using the loading device, place a small amount of the unknown substance in the pouch. Break the glass ampules (from left to right). Agitate the solution in the ouch and watch for the color change(s). Next, compare the color(s) of the solution to the color(s) printed on each pouch.
