Product Properties The ultimate portable, on-site testing system for drugs and alcohol. The Alpha Lab-in-a-Bag combines the Dräger DrugTest 5000 Analyser, Dräger Alcotest 7510 Breathalyzer and mobile printer to create a completely mobile test centre for both drugs and alcohol. A complete solution for drug and alcohol testing The Alpha Lab-in-a-Bag combines the Drager DrugTest 5000 Analyser with the Drager Alcotest 7510 Breathalyzer and mobile printer to create a completely mobile test centre for both drugs and alcohol. The Alpha kit includes a keyboard allowing for full data entry of information such as the name of the person being tested, the person supervising the test and data such as staff numbers etc. All this information can be printed onto the hard copy result and also recorded for download to a PC should it be required. The Dräger Alcotest 7510 Breathalyzer is UK Home Office Approved. The DrugTest 5000 has been Home Office Approved for use by the UK police force in the detection of THC (Cannabis). Both are made by Draeger, so accuracy and reliability are guaranteed – Draeger represents the very pinnacle of drug and alcohol testing and screening equipment for use in the workplace. Objective ResultsThe real difference with the lab-in-a-bag concept, when compared to other methods and products like DrugWipe, is the fact that the system is entirely objective. Results are displayed on the integrated screen, as well as hard-copy printouts from the mobile printer. The subjectivity of interpreting results (all of which requires experienced personnel to carry out) is removed and replaced with simple, factual and unambiguous result. In effect, the system removes any risk of human error. We offer CPD Accredited Drug and Alcohol Testing Training courses which includes hands-on training for the Alpha Lab-in-a-Bag system. After training, your staff can be tasked with carrying out the entire screening procedure, assured that cross-contamination issues are either minimised or eliminated and whatever result obtained, there can be no dispute as to the readings found. Laboratory ConfirmationThe Dräger DrugTest 5000 Analyser is highly accurate and rarely would the results be challenged. In the event of a result being disputed by an employee, a follow-up laboratory confirmation test can be carried out. Our pre paid confirmation kit is ideal for this purpose; it comes complete with full chain-of-custody instructions and pre-paid laboratory testing envelope; just sample, seal and send. At just £99 for a kit containing a pair of duplicate testers it forms a very cost-effective means of obtaining laboratory-assured results. The second test is held in reserve and can be re-tested by a laboratory of the employee’s choice should they wish. Low Running CostsWith the exception of a bi-annual calibration and mouthpieces, there are no ongoing costs associated with the breathalyser. Mouthpieces are supplied individually sealed for hygiene purposes but one may be used many times over by the same individual. A box of 20 x Drager DrugTest 5000 Test Kit Cartridges (box of20) costs £595 + VAT and comes with a shelf life of 12 months. We have test plans available for those performing more than 40 tests every 3 months. Depending on the quantity of test kits you require with a test plan, the cost of the test kits will be from as little as £20.50. We also deliver and invoice quarterly making sure you are not holding stock with a short shelf life. Please contact us or more details on our test plans.
