Note on test results: Detection limit with FTIR is about 5%. Substances in the sample under 5% may not be detected. There could be any number of extra components at 1-2%. Fentanyl test strips will show positive for results over 20ng. Fentanyl test strips cannot differentiate which analogue of fentanyl is present. Fentanyl test strips cannot determine concentration of fentanyl in a sample. Two or more analogues of fentanyl may be present (e.g. fentanyl and carfentanil), just because the strip is positive does not mean that carfentanil is not also present.
