Dubai Police has introduced the Rapid Test Cup, a groundbreaking device that ensures swift and accurate examination of narcotics, reducing detainee custody time from from seven hours to a mere 10 minutes. The Rapid Test Cup, unveiled at the World Police Summit, eliminates the chances of human error or bias, setting it apart from conventional testing methods.
The innovative device was designed to cover 13 types of modern drug groups listed in the schedules of the Federal Law on Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances.
However, the journey to develop the Rapid Test Cup was challenging, and the project underwent rigorous testing to ensure effectiveness. It went through 3,272 trials to measure its effectiveness.

We strive to provide advanced models that support laboratories, enhance performance levels, and facilitate optimal investment in testing techniques and tools," shared Ibtisam Abdul Rahman Al-Abdouli, Director of the Drug Observatory Center at the General Administration of Forensic Evidence and Criminology in the press release.
