By the decision of the Security Council of the Russian Federation on the issue of “On the drug situation in the Russian Federation and measures to combat drug trafficking and drug abuse” dated 6.07.1999, the governing bodies of the executive power of the Russian Federation were instructed to organize work on equipping regional (city) assembly points of military commissariats with modern equipment and means of express diagnostics to identify persons who use drugs. Due to the lack of such equipment, a new screening method for testing people who use drugs has been developed, and equipment has been developed and tested to ensure the implementation of this method.
