Board approves ELISA drug screening kit pricing for forensic toxicology
Summary
Sedgwick County approved discounted pricing and renewal options with Immunalysis (Alere San Diego) for ELISA drug screening kits used by the toxicology lab; staff clarified the assays are for toxicology, not DNA, and validated methods and plates are included.
The Board accepted pricing from Alere San Diego Inc. (doing business as Immunalysis Corporation) for ELISA drug screening kits and related consumables for one year with two one‑year renewal options, with annual increases not to exceed 5%.
A toxicology representative clarified that the technology is used by the toxicology lab rather than the DNA lab and confirmed that "all of the validated methods and plates are included here." The presentation noted that new and novel drugs constantly emerge and that the lab may validate additional assays as needed, taking the vendor’s pricing when that happens.
The motion to accept the pricing and renewal conditions was moved, seconded and approved by the board.
