Morphine Cassette and Dipstick 
MOR is a rapid, qualitative, chromatographic immunoassay which detects morphine and  in urine
The opiates such as heroin, morphine, and codeine are derived from the resin of the opium poppy. Morphine and morphine glucuronide might both be found in the urine sample of a person who has taken morphine. Heroin and Codeine are quickly metabolized to morphine in the body. Therefore, the presence of morphine or the metabolite, morphine glucuronide, in urine, is an indication of heroin, morphine and/or codeine use.
The MOP-Card for morphine is a lateral flow, one-step, competitive immunoassay. This one step test is fast and easy, and results are read visually without the need for instrumentation. The test system employs unique monoclonal antibodies to selectively identify morphine in urine samples with a high degree of sensitivity. The cut off concentration for morphine has been developed at 300 ng/ml, the concentration set by the National Institute on Drug Abuse for the qualitative detection of morphine in human urine. This product is not intended to monitor drug levels, but only to screen urine for the presence of morphine.
Note: This test provides only a preliminary analytical test result which should be confirmed by a more specific method. Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) has been established as the preferred confirmatory method by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA). Clinical consideration and professional judgment should be applied to any drug of abuse test result, particularly when preliminary positive results are indicated.

The MOP Test for Morphine is based on the principle of a competitive inhibition immunoassay, in which a chemically labeled drug (drug conjugate) competes with the drug which may be present in urine, for limited antibody binding sites. The test device consists of a membrane strip, which is pre-coated with morphine-BSA conjugate on the test band region, and a colored anti-morphine monoclonal antibody-colloid gold conjugate pad, which is placed at the end of the membrane.
In the absence of drug in the urine, the colored antibody-colloid gold conjugate moves with the sample by capillary action along the membrane until it reaches the immobilized drug conjugate in the test band region. At this point, the antibody-colloid gold conjugate reacts with the pre-coated drug conjugate and forms a visible red colored line as the antibodies form complexes with the drug conjugate. Therefore, the formation of a visible color line on the test band region, shows the urine sample tested for morphine is negative. When the drug is present in the urine, the drug/metabolite antigen will compete with the drug conjugate coated in the test band region for the limited antibody sites. When a sufficient concentration of drug is present, it will fill the limited antibody binding sites, and thus will prevent attachment of the colored antibody-colloid gold conjugate to drug conjugates pre-coated in the test band region. Therefore, absence of the color band on the test region indicates a positive result. A control band with a different antigen/antibody reaction is also added to membrane strip to indicate that the test is performed properly. This control line should always be seen. A negative urine sample produces two distinct color bands, and a positive sample produces only one color band in the control zone.
