Wie testet man LSD?

Questions?

• What is LSD test kit for?

  LSD Test Kit includes 4 reagents best for LSD or DMT, but also suitable for other lysergamides, tryptamines and more. It is used to positively identify LSD, 1P-LSD, AL-LAD, ETH-LAD, ALD-52 and to rule out 2C-B, NBOMe, N3OMe, NBOH, NBF, DOx, or different, less predictable, less desirable, highly toxic dangerous drugs. Multiple reagents are required to detect adulterants and increase analysis precision.

  Reagent tests can indicate PRESENCE, but not PURITY or QUANTITY. Mixtures can be detected with reagents only if adulterant causes a darker color change than the expected substance. To detect all ingredients and estimate their amount pair reagents with a TLC purity test kit.

• What is included in LSD reagent test kit?

  LSD Reagent Test Kit includes 4 reagents: Ehrlich, Hofmann, Marquis, and Mecke,  absorbent vermiculite, a porcelain reaction plate, a spatula, gloves, instructions and app for all test kits and over 800 substances. Every bottle contains 10 ml (crystals), 100 tests of each in total. High quality HDPE and brown amber glass protect reagents from light, plastic and moisture to ensure prolonged shelf life. Child-proof caps guarantee 0 spills.

• What is each reagent test for?

  LSD Test Kit is best for LSD or DMT but is also suitable for other lysergamides, tryptamines and more.

  

  • Cannabis (4-AP) – main test for THC / CBD, helps rule out synthetic cannabinoids
  • Ehrlich – main test for all indoles, e.g. lysergamides and tryptamines but also 5-HTP and more, secondary test for cocaine
  • Hofmann – main test for lysergamides and tryptamines, more precise but slower than Ehrlich
  • Froehde – main test for most powders, secondary test for ketamine and amphetamines, long shelf life
  • Liebermann – main test for most powders, secondary test for cocaine (detects levamisole)
  • Marquis – main test for most powders, secondary test for ketamine, mephedrone and psychedelics
  • Mecke – main test for most powders, secondary test for cocaine, ketamine and mephedrone
  • Morris – main test for cathinones, cocaine and ketamine, can tell apart some novel dissociatives
  • Robadope – main test for primary amines, e.g. MDA, amphetamine or PMA
  • Simon – main test for secondary amines, e.g. MDMA, meth, mephedrone, methylone or PMMA
  • Zimmermann / Beam – main test for cathinones and benzodiazepines in geneal, detects also CBD

  Fentanyl Test Strip to detect fentanyl, even if it is mixed in another substance.

  Reagents can indicate PRESENCE, but not PURITY or QUANTITY. Adulterants can be detected with reagents only if they cause a darker color change than the expected substance. To detect all ingredients and estimate their amount pair reagents with a TLC purity test kit.

• How to use LSD reagent test kit?

  GET ALL TOOLS

  First, prepare a clean white testing surface – ceramic or glass is the best, e.g. bottom of a mug or a plate. Get your sample, reagents, a sharp tool / scoop and paper towels.

  PREPARE SAMPLE, AT LEAST THIS BIG (MAX 5 MG) -> ●   

  If testing a blotter or gel tab cut off 1/8th (a corner). If testing a pill, powder or crystal, crush it finely. If testing a liquid, dry one drop on paper or clean ceramic surface. If testing a blotter or gel tab, cut off at least 1/8th (a corner). A bigger sample can cause a stronger reaction. You need a new sample for each test.

  ADD PROPORTIONAL AMOUNT OF REAGENT

  Shake bottles hard before use, then tap firmly to shake down any reagent stuck in cap. Do not let a bottle touch sample or you will ruin the rest of the reagent. Use just enough reagent to cover a sample. If using crystals avoid air pockets by flattening crystals onto sample using a clean tool. Do not combine reagents except for „A” and „B” bottles. If using Morris reagent, mix it with a clean spatula or toothpick for 30 seconds.

  OBSERVE FOR UP TO 60 MINUTES*

  Ehrlich and Hofmann develop slowly on LSD: allow up to 60 minutes. With any other reagent, disregard significant colour changes after 1-2 minutes. Do not overinterpret your results, consider that color change reaction is always fastest and most vivid in the part where biggest surface of reagent touches sample, compared to its edges. Over time reaction will degrade due to air contact. Take photos. *If testing a blotter or gel tab using Ehrlich or Hofmann observe reaction for up to 60 minutes.

  COMPARE RESULTS

  Compare color change with instructions. Reagents can indicate PRESENCE, but not PURITY or QUANTITY. Adulterants can be detected with reagents only if they cause a darker color change than the expected substance. To detect all ingredients and estimate their amount pair reagents with a TLC purity test kit.

  Clean used reagent tools / testing surface with lots of running water and detergent, avoid contamination.

• How to interpret LSD reagent test kit results?

  

   

  Expected LSD test kit results:

  • Ehrlich reagent – pink / purple
  • Hofmann reagent – blueish / gray
  • Marquis reagent – no instant vivid color change
  • Mecke reagent – no instant vivid color change

• How to handle LSD test kit?

  Drug testing kits contain toxic and/or corrosive chemicals, strong enough to burn skin and clothing. Keep out of eyes and mouth. Keep away from children and animals. Always use in a well-ventilated area. Wear gloves (supplied) when handling the bottle and cap. Wear protective eyewear. Never point towards face etc. If you get some on you/clothing, then immediately wash with lots of soap and water. Dispose of any unwanted reagent with running water, ventilate. Store reagents standing up and away from heat in a cool, dark place. The average shelf life of 2 years can be significantly extended by storing in a fridge or freezer (warm up to room temperature before use).

  Reagents deteriorate with time or due to contact with air, especially if exposed to sunlight or not refrigerated. If you are uncertain whether the reagent will work, test it with an already confirmed sample.

  STORAGE

  • Absorbent vermiculite can be thrown away – it is only there to secure the reagents in transit.
  • Keep away from heat and sunlight.
  • Store bottles tightly closed and keep granules out of the cap („crunchy lid syndrome“).
  • Tests have an average shelf life of 2 years, depending on storage conditions. A fridge or freezer extends it considerably – warm to room temperature before use.

  HANDLING

  • Always wear gloves; consider protective eyewear and a mask.
  • Only test in a well-ventilated area, and avoid the fumes.
  • Have running water available to clean up after testing.
  • Never open more than one bottle at once.
  • Warm reagents to room temperature before use.
  • Avoid contamination: wash and fully dry all accessories after use.
  • Use paper towels to wipe a used plastic spatula clean straight away.
  • Do not leave reagents unattended, and keep them away from children and animals.

  CRYSTALLINE REAGENTS IN GLASS BOTTLES

  • Shake the reagent bottle for 5-10 seconds right before use.
  • Tap the bottle firmly to bring crystals down from the cap.
  • To add crystalline reagent, pour it out – tap the bottle or use a spatula.
  • Flatten the solid reagent on top of the sample for the best result (optional).
  • Wipe the cap and neck to avoid a „crunchy lid“ and protect the cap seal.

  DISPOSAL

  • Wash used or spilled reagent away with plenty of water and soap.
  • Dispose of product contents or contaminated materials according to local procedures for hazardous waste.
• How to check LSD purity (number and amount of substances)?

  After an Identification Test we recommend a TLC purity test. It shows how many substances are in the sample and estimates the amount (%) of each one separately.

  A Quantity Test measures the one substance you expect, and reagents name what TLC separated, so the three work together.
