Description
Avitar produces oral-based, rapid diagnostics that enable random on-site drug testing without the need for medical personnel or bathroom facilities.
Products / Services
Avitar's diagnostic test products include ORALscreen and ORALscreen DRUGOMETER, which are oral fluid-based onsite assay systems for detecting drugs of abuse. The company also produces a foam disposable product called Hydrasorb, an absorbent topical dressing for moderate to heavy exudating wounds. In addition, the company offers products for dressing external bone fixators in orthopedic procedures and a molded dental applicator for consumer teeth bleaching system, as well as a device used by astronauts for relieving ear pressure.
Technology / Differentiation
Avitar's ORALscreen DRUGOMETER product, an oral on-site test for drugs-of-abuse, removes the common practices of urine specimen adulteration and substitution. It also enables random on-site drug testing, the only proven method of significantly reducing drug use in the workplace.
