Drug Hunter is a portable saliva drug analyzer designed to identify and quantify drugs on site — helping law enforcement reduce false-positive preselection, avoid unnecessary blood tests, and make faster decisions based on clear analytical results.
EUROPOL Excellence Award-winning technology. Developed for real field conditions. Built to support faster, fairer decisions.
Traditional roadside drug testing is time- and resource-intensive. Saliva test collection is sensitive, and when a positive preselection is followed by blood analysis, a large share of cases ultimately show no substance above the legal threshold.
In some systems, approximately 40% of positive pre-selections made by PMT or saliva test do not result in a confirmed exceedance of the legal limit. This creates unnecessary work for police, medical staff, laboratories, and courts — without leading to prosecution.
Drug Hunter addresses this gap by identifying and quantifying drugs directly from saliva on site. Instead of relying on a preliminary indication that may later collapse, teams receive clearer substance-specific information earlier in the process.
The result: fewer unnecessary blood tests, fewer wasted resources, and fewer false-positive cases moving through the system.
Drug Hunter is designed to eliminate false-positive preselection by identifying and quantifying each substance separately. This helps prevent unnecessary escalation caused by unclear or cross-reactive rapid-test results.
Instead of a simple positive/negative indication, Drug Hunter provides substance-specific data: which drug was detected and at what concentration. This gives officers, border teams, and workplace safety professionals better information before deciding on next steps.
Every false-positive preselection can trigger blood sampling, medical staff involvement, laboratory confirmation, administrative work, and legal procedures. Drug Hunter helps reduce this unnecessary workload by giving clearer results earlier.
Drug Hunter gives law enforcement and safety teams more than a preliminary signal. It identifies and quantifies drugs directly from a saliva sample, helping teams understand what was actually detected before escalating the case.
This is especially important when a standard saliva test or PMT result may later be contradicted by blood analysis. By providing substance-specific information earlier, Drug Hunter helps reduce unnecessary blood tests, avoid wasted capacity, and support more proportionate decision-making.
Drug Hunter is designed for teams that need fast, reliable information before the case moves further into the system.
The tested person rinses their mouth with a physiological saline solution, and the saliva-saline sample is collected for analysis. Drug Hunter then processes the sample and produces a clear result showing which substance was detected and at what concentration.
Because the analysis happens on site, teams can reduce dependence on delayed follow-up procedures and avoid sending unnecessary cases into the blood-testing and laboratory-confirmation pipeline.
Identify multiple substances separately in the same sample.
Get clearer information directly at the roadside, border checkpoint, workplace, or field operation.
Use the result to decide whether further action or confirmation is needed.
This helps officers and decision-makers avoid unnecessary action based on unclear or misleading screening results.
The gap between a positive preselection and later blood confirmation is especially visible in THC-related cases, but the problem is broader. Law enforcement teams need clearer on-site information across multiple drug categories — not only cannabinoids.
Drug Hunter helps identify and quantify different substances directly from saliva, including cannabinoids, stimulants, opioids, and other commonly encountered drugs.
Modern drug use is increasingly complex. People may use several substances, consume synthetic or semi-synthetic compounds, or test positive in a preliminary screen without later exceeding the legal threshold in blood.
Drug Hunter helps reduce this uncertainty by identifying and quantifying each detected substance separately in saliva. This gives teams clearer information before deciding whether a case should move forward.
A false-positive preselection is not just an inaccurate test result. It can trigger a chain of procedures: officer time, medical staff involvement, blood sampling, laboratory confirmation, administrative work, and legal processing.
In many cases, this work does not lead to prosecution. Figures show that approximately 40% of positive pre-selections by PMT or saliva test may ultimately show no substance above the legal threshold in blood analysis.
Drug Hunter helps reduce this waste by giving teams clearer, substance-specific saliva results on site — before unnecessary capacity is deployed.
