Experimental Protocols

1) Collectors will be provided sandwich bags to place each collected sample in to avoid cross contamination.

2) Collection will be completed by 3 assistants who currently engage in syringe clean-up in areas where drug use is prevalent. 

3) Test strips will be used to test the used and empty heroin bags. The test strips use immunoassay technology to quickly and reliably detect the presence of fentanyl and its analogs.
