## Indications for use
The Emit® II Plus Buprenorphine Assay is a homogeneous enzyme immunoassay with a 5 ng/mL cutoff. The assay is intended for use in laboratories for the qualitative and/or semiquantitative analyses of buprenorphine in human urine. Emit® II Plus assays are designed for use with a number of chemistry analyzers. The semiquantitative mode is for the purpose of enabling laboratories to determine an appropriate dilution of the specimen for confirmation by a confirmatory method such as Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (LC/MS) or permitting laboratories to establish quality control procedures. The Emit® II Plus Buprenorphine Assay provides only a preliminary analytical test result. A more specific alternative chemical method(s) must be used to obtain a confirmed analytical result. Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS) or LC/MS are the preferred confirmatory methods. Other chemical confirmation methods are available. Clinical consideration and professional judgment should be applied to any drug-of-abuse test result, particularly when preliminary positive results are used. For Professional Use. Caution: Federal (USA) law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a licensed healthcare professional. For in vitro diagnostic use.
