MethChek Kits are semi-quantitative immunoassay tests that detect low levels of methamphetamine residue on surfaces. The kits may be used to determine the need for cleaning in a specific area or the need for further cleaning on-site to reach state cleanup guidelines. Some states and counties require lab results from quantitative wipe sampling before issuing a re-entry certificate. Consult state meth cleanup guidelines.
