The Lin-Zhi International (LZI) Buprenorphine Enzyme Immunoassay is intended for the qualitative and semi-quantitative determination of norbuprenorphine (buprenorphine metabolite) in human urine, at a cutoff value of 5 and 10 ng/mL. The assay is designed for prescription use in clinics and clinical chemistry laboratories with a number of automated clinical chemistry analyzers.

The Norbuprenorphine Drugs of Abuse (DAU) Calibrators are for use as calibrators in the qualitative and semi-quantitative calibration of the Lin-Zhi International (LZI) Buprenorphine Enzyme Immunoassay.

The Norbuprenorphine Drugs of Abuse (DAU) Controls are for use as assayed quality control materials to monitor the precision of the Lin-Zhi International (LZI) Buprenorphine Enzyme Immunoassay.

The assay provides only a preliminary analytical result. A more specific alternative chemical method must be used in order to obtain a confirmed analytical result. Chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS or LC/MS) is the preferred confirmatory method). Clinical consideration and professional judgment should be exercised with any drug of abuse test result, particularly when the preliminary test result is positive

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
