UNDERSTANDING TEST RESULTS:
The FTIR has a detection limit of approximately 5%. Substances below this level may not appear in results — even if they are toxic or affect the potency of your sample.
When possible, we may provide a percentage estimate based on what the FTIR detects. These numbers are generated by software and reflect only the visible components — not the full composition of the sample. The FTIR cannot isolate individual substances in complex mixtures, so any percentage estimates are approximate. They may not reflect actual potency, and similar-looking samples can yield different results – therefore our results are not suitable for purity testing.
Undetected ingredients below the detection threshold may influence the composition. Any percentages listed intended only as a general indication of how the identified ingredients are distributed within the sample. Due to this, our results should not be used to determine exact dosages.
Additionally, a sample may not reflect the full composition of a drug. For example, testing a portion of a pill may not represent the rest of the pill, or other pills from the same batch. Cross-contamination between samples stored together can also affect results.
When we detect only one substance, we don’t provide a percentage because other ingredients might still be present below the 5% detection limit.
Treat any percentage result as a rough guideline, not a precise measurement.
Tests highlighted in red indicate particularly dangerous or unexpected results. Flagged samples can alslo be viewed on our Alerts page.
We also use test strips to detect the presence of fentanyl, benzodiazapenes, and lysergamide (LSD).
