The world of drug testing is undergoing a major transformation, and nform is leading the charge. Urine tests are invasive, prone to adulteration and specimen substitution, and unsuitable for specifically detecting recent marijuana use. Back-to-lab tests can take 24-96 hours to deliver results, creating stress and uncertainty for individuals and organizations alike. Faster and more accurate alternatives are needed, and we are proud to offer the solution. The nform rapid oral fluid tests offer an observed specimen collection process, which can be administered by anyone, anywhere. In minutes, our tests deliver unmatched lab-like accuracy, meeting the strict SAMHSA laboratory screening standards for both sensitivity and specificity. With nform, we are revolutionizing drug testing as we know it.
