Description

General description

A certified Snap-N-Spike^® reference solution of routinely tested drugs methamphetamine, cocaine, and heroin. Addicts often administer these drugs together as a way to increase the intensity of a “high”. This analytical reference standard is applicable in LC/MS or GC/MS applications for urine drug testing, clinical toxicology, and forensic analysis.

Application

• Forensic drug analysis reagents: Methamphetamine/Cocaine/Heroin solution is critical for on-site testing, as demonstrated by a dual microfluidic sensor system that enriches electrochemical profiles for the identification of these illicit drugs, aiding forensic investigations (Steijlen et al., 2024).
• Substance abuse research compounds: This solution is used in evaluating drug supply measures and their impact on drug overdose mortality, particularly in environments dominated by fentanyl and stimulants, providing essential data for public health policies (Cano et al., 2023).
• Pharmacological study substances: In polydrug use research, Methamphetamine/Cocaine/Heroin solution is indispensable for creating real-world scenarios to study usage patterns among those misusing prescription opioids and heroin, enhancing our understanding of drug interactions and user behaviors (Bobashev and Warren, 2022).
• Analytical research chemicals: The solution facilitates advanced toxicological analyses such as in hair testing, where it helps evaluate decontamination procedures, crucial for ensuring accurate results in drug testing methodologies (Ramírez Fernández et al., 2022).
• Controlled substance reference standards: Used extensively as a reference standard in laboratory settings, Methamphetamine/Cocaine/Heroin solution aids in calibrating and validating analytical instruments, ensuring precise measurements in pharmacological and forensic studies.
