Greenlane (NASDAQ:GNLN) stock is rocketing higher on Monday alongside a letter of intent for the cannabis accessories company to sell new testing strips in the U.S.

Greenlane has reached an agreement with Safety Strips to act as the exclusive seller of the company’s fentanyl, xylazine and drink spike detection test strips. This allows for quick and affordable testing for fentanyl, xylazine and spiked drinks.

The Safety Strips only require the substance to be mixed with water and the strip to be dipped for 15 seconds. After five minutes, it will show if the water was compromised. A single line shows a positive result, while two lines show a negative one.

Greenlane CEO Barbara Sher said the following about this agreement:

“We are excited and proud to provide Safety Strips affordable and highly accurate tests with trace level fentanyl and xylazine detection capabilities to our customers throughout the U.S. Safety Strips products are an innovative and complementary addition to our extensive product portfolio, and we plan to leverage our strong distribution, operations, marketing and sales teams to support the brand.”
