  • SCIENTIFIC and TECHNICAL NOTES Colour Tests for Precursor
    SCITEC/20 SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL NOTES December 2005 Colour Tests for Precursor Chemicals of Amphetamine-Type Substances The Use of Colour Tests for Distinguishing between Ephedrine-Derivatives Gábor Nagy, István Szöllősi and Kálmán Szendrei Department of Pharmacognosy Szeged University, Hungary Abstract Ephedrine, norephedrine and pseudoephedrine have in recent years been subject to extensive illicit trafficking in many countries of the world. A simple chemical method, based on a combination of three known colour tests, is presented to differentiate these and other related ephedrine derivatives. The underlying chemistry is discussed. Introduction Why colour tests for differentiating ephedrine derivatives? Colour tests are usually the simplest and quickest chemical test that an analyst can apply to a sample. Most colour tests are quite sensitive; thus, only minute quantities of sample are necessary to complete a successful test, and often the best results are obtained with the smallest of sample quantities, frequently less than one mg. They are designed to provide an indication of the presence or absence of drug classes in the test sample and quickly eliminate negative samples. Good presumptive testing methods, as all analytical techniques, maximize the probability of a “true” result, and minimize false positives. However, presumptive tests are not considered sufficient for drug identification and results must be confirmed by additional laboratory tests [1]. While often declared obsolete by some, colour tests have their place not only in field test kits for police and customs personnel, but also as important constituents of analytical laboratory schemes. Yet, some colour tests are more specific than others. Good examples to illustrate the considerable differences in specificity are the tests routinely used for the two illicit drugs most frequently encountered worldwide in the illicit market, the opiates and cannabis.

From this beginning work was done on other alkaloids until a total of sixty-four had been tested. Thirteen of these alkaloids were of doubt- ful purity, and therefore the results obtained on these are not recorded here. Two preliminary papers have been presented on this work before the Association of Official Agricultural Chem- ists, the first in 1908, published in Bulletin No. 122, Bureau of Chemistry, p. 97,1909, and the second in 1910, published in Bulletin No. 137, Bureau of Chemistry, p. 189,1911. In this work no claim at all is made for originality in applying the microchemical tests for alkaloids, as the methods have been in use for many years.

  • Presumptive Testing of Amphetamine-Type Stimulants Via Colour Tests
    AJSTD Vol. 27 Issue 1 pp 66-75 (2010) PRESUMPTIVE TESTING OF AMPHETAMINE-TYPE STIMULANTS VIA COLOUR TESTS Tang Yuan Pinb, Lim Swee China, Lim Soon Hina and Linda BL Limb,* a Narcotics Laboratory, Department of Scientific Services, Ministry of Health, Bandar Seri Begawan, Brunei Darussalam. b Chemistry Section, Faculty of Science, Universiti Brunei Darussalam, Jalan Tungku Link, Gadong BE , Brunei Darussalam. Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper focuses on the use of colour tests to identify the possible presence of amphetamine-type stimulants (ATS). At present in Brunei Darussalam, some of the screenings for the presence of ATS in the Narcotics Laboratory make use of test-kits which are expensive. In this paper, various test reagents such as Chen, Simon, Marquis, Mandelin, Mecke and Froehde reagents were prepared.6,7 Except for Mandelin reagent, these test reagents were found to be stable after a month. The concentrations of samples have an effect on the colour changes. All reagents, except for the Mandelin reagent, gave good and reliable results. This therefore provides a fast and economical way of initial screening for ATS. Keywords: presumptive tests, amphetamine-type stimulants, colour tests 66 AJSTD Vol. 27 Issue 1 INTRODUCTION Amphetamine-type stimulants (ATS) are drugs that are structurally derived from β- phenethylamine (β-PEA) (see Figure 1) and examples include amphetamine, methamphetamine, phentermine, 3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine (MDA), 3,4- methylenedioxyethylamphetamine (MDEA), 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) and many more. They are easy to produce, cheap to buy and hard to control. They can be more potent than cocaine and usually have a longer-lasting effect.
