UNDERSTANDING TEST RESULTS: Our spectrometers have a 5% threshold for detection. This means that we cannot detect anything present in a sample under 5%. This could include unexpected or dangerous substances! When we provide a percentage, be aware that the technician uses the software and their own experience to estimate the amount of each substance present. To reflect uncertainty, these percentages are given in a range. These estimates may not be accurate, may vary between technicians and between samples from the same batch. Another thing to consider is that poor mixing and inconsistent production can mean that a small sample does not represent the entire pill or batch it was drawn from.
We do not include percentages if only one substance is detected. Values listed as N/A are substances we were unable to assign a percentage to. 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).
While this sample tested positive for benzodiazepines by test strip, we were unable to detect an active ingredient on the FTIR spectrometer. The positive result on the benzodiazepine test strip tells us there is a benzo present below the machine's detection threshhold, though we cannot confirm which benzodiazepine.
In addition to a detectable amount of fentanyl analogue & xylazine, this sample tested positive for benzodiazepines by test strip. This complex mix of substances could lead to an overdose that does not fully respond to nalaxone.

This sample shares a number of similarities with 2C-B, but is not an exact match for our reference spectra. As all of the 2C-family substances look very similar by FTIR, we cannot definitively say that this sample is 2C-B.
