We were surprised to see no drugs detected and yet a strong red reaction with the Mandelin reagent.
GC/MS does not detect things like sugars, fillers, simple salts, etc. So we're interested if anyone else has ideas what kinds of crystals would react this way with Mandelin reagent.
The lab ran a series of tests against simple inorganic chemicals and found that simple Sodium Chloride (table salt) and Potassium Chloride both cause field reagent results consistent with this sample.
Submitter described this material was sold as 'pure ecstasy'.
Send in a sample for testing
DrugsData tests all psychoactive drugs including ecstasy tablets, powders, research chemicals, novel pschoactive substances, and other drugs through our licensed laboratory. Ecstasy/Molly tablets cost $100. Recreational drug powder/crystal/blotter costs $100. Pharmaceuticals, supplements and all others cost $150 per analysis.
Should the public have access to independent analysis of the products they consume?
The vast majority of analyses of over-the-counter, prescription, and recreational drugs are performed in secret with no independent oversite or review. No other historical record, free from politically-controlled agencies, is currently available in North America nor most other parts of the world.
DrugsData, a project of Erowid Center, needs the support of professionals, students, parents, individuals with means, and small foundations for a total yearly budget of around $120,000 USD. Erowid Center's general budget and the co-pays we require fund most of this cost.
