The method of testing comprises the steps of: (a) puncturing the finger of a test subject to obtain a quantity of saliva on the finger, (b) mixing a microsome labelled antibody to the saliva to form a complexed solution, (c) covering the finger with a thin film of saliva and (d) placing the finger on a membrane containing antibodies specifically selected to bind antigens produced by the substances being tested for in the saliva so that solution is deposited from the finger on the membrane indicating presence or absence of a substance while presenting the fingerprint of the test subject.
