Product Description
Temperature Strip for Drug Testing
Standard practice when collecting urine specimens for drug testing is to check the temperature of the specimen within four minutes of obtaining a viable specimen. Any temperature between 90 – 100 F is normal. Specimens with temperatures that are outside of this range are suspected of adulteration, substitution, or dilution. Self-adhesive strips attach to any specimen container.
Features

Question
Anon –
Can they reveal any information after the first use? Or are they pretty useless after determining the initial temperature?

Does the initial reading stay the same on temperature strip or does go aways after 4min

Yes, that is why it is important to immediately read the temperature on the specimen immediately when the donor hands it to you.

Great question Anon.
They are intended for single use. The adhesive on the strip is pretty strong, so you may risk damage pulling it off to apply to another cup. More importantly, if you are ever called into a court of law to defend your testing procedure, you want to be able to maintain that you did not reuse materials intended as single-use and disposable.
