SUMMARY identity of social groups. Many of the medicinal plants have Alkaloids are a class of nitrogenous organic their healing properties known by empirical use through time, compounds of plant origin that may have important but these medicinal plants may contain active ingredients physiological actions on humans. They include many with tested pharmacological properties. One possibility is that drugs and poisons, but some alkaloids in low doses some of the active ingredients in medicinal plants belong to the have health benefits as well. Traditional medicinal group of alkaloids, which can be determined by a colorimetric plants may contain alkaloids as active ingredients, chemical reaction with the Marquis reagent. The reagent is but this is not well-understood. The Marquis reagent dripped onto the substance being tested, and if an alkaloid exists as a simple qualitative colorimetric method is present, a color change appears (5). The Marquis reagent to determine the presence of alkaloids in medicinal is traditionally composed of a mixture of formaldehyde and plants. The Marquis reagent test was assayed in concentrated sulfuric acid. medicinal plants by first optimizing the formulation Originally, the Marquis reagent was used for testing of the reagent using poppy seeds and lavender as many different alkaloids, and the results from those studies the positive and negative controls. Then using the were the base for developing the color scales that are optimized formulation of Marquis reagent in the extracts of 11 medicinal plants with known claims of used as a reference to determine the specific alkaloid health benefits.

The simplicity, low cost and rapid results afforded by these tests make them particularly attractive for presumptive identification globally. In this paper, we review the development of these long- established methods and discuss color test recommendations and guidelines. A search of the scientific literature revealed the chemical Abstract: reactions occurring in many color tests are either not actively investigated or reported as unknown. Today, color tests face many challenges, from the appearance of new psychoactive substances to concerns regarding selectivity, sensitivity, and safety. Advances in technology have seen color test reagents used in digital image color analysis, solid sensors and microfluidic devices for illicit drug detection. This review aims to summarize current research and suggest the future of presumptive color testing. http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/dta Page 1 of 34 Drug Testing and Analysis 1 2 3 A review of chemical ‘spot’ tests: a presumptive illicit drug identification 4 5 technique 6 7 Morgan Philp and Shanlin Fu 8 9 10 11 Short title: Review of chemical spot tests for illicit drug detection 12 13 Chemical ‘spot’ tests are a presumptive illicit drug identification technique commonly used 14 by law enforcement, border security personnel, and forensic laboratories.

Introduction Preliminary screening of Drugs are basically done by Colour tests, also sometimes referred to as chemical spot tests, provide with one of the leading tools for the presumptive identification of drugs. These colour tests are most practically applied to pharmaceuticals and scene of crime residues and, to a lesser extent, to biological fluids such as stomach contents, urine, etc. They are used to place the unidentified into a specific class of compounds or to eliminate categories or classes of compounds. These colour tests remain popular for several reasons. They are simple to perform and no extensive training is required. As such, they appeal in situations where laboratory facilities may be very limited. They can be performed in the field by police officers or technicians, require minimal reagents, are inexpensive, and give immediate results that can be viewed by the bare eye.

  • Psychedelic Resource List (PRL) Was Born in 1994 As a Subscription-Based Newsletter
    A Note from the Author… The Psychedelic Resource List (PRL) was born in 1994 as a subscription-based newsletter. In 1996, everything that had previously been published, along with a bounty of new material, was updated and compiled into a book. From 1996 until 2004, several new editions of the book were produced. With each new version, a decrease in font size correlated to an increase in information. The task of revising the book grew continually larger. Two attempts to create an updated fifth edition both fizzled out. I finally accepted that keeping on top of all of the new books, businesses, and organizations, had become a more formidable challenge than I wished to take on. In any case, these days folks can find much of what they are looking for by simply using an Internet search engine. Even though much of the PRL is now extremely dated, it occurred to me that there are two reasons why making it available on the web might be of value. First, despite the fact that a good deal of the book’s content describes things that are no longer extant, certainly some of the content relates to writings that are still available and businesses or organizations that are still in operation. The opinions expressed regarding such literature and groups may remain helpful for those who are attempting to navigate the field for solid resources, or who need some guidance regarding what’s best to avoid. Second, the book acts as a snapshot of underground culture at a particular point in history. As such, it may be found to be an enjoyable glimpse of the psychedelic scene during the late 1990s and early 2000s.

  • Basic Analytical Toxicology
    The World Health Organization is a specialized agency of the United Nations with primary responsibility for international health matters and public health. Through this organization, which was created in 1948, the health professions of some 190 countries exchange their knowledge and experience with the aim of making possible the attainment by all citizens of the world by the year 2000 of a level of health that will permit them to lead a socially and economically productive life. By means of direct technical cooperation with its Member States, and by stimulating such coopera­ tion among them, WHO promotes the development of comprehensive health services, the prevention and control of diseases, the improvement of environmental conditions, the development of human resources for health, the coordination and development of biomedical and health services research, and the planning and implementation of health programmes. These broad fields of endeavour encompass a wide variety of activities, such as developing systems of primary health care that reach the whole population of Member countries; promoting the health of mothers and children; combating malnutrition, controlling malaria and other communicable diseases including tuberculosis and leprosy; coordinating the global strategy for the prevention and control of AIDS; having achieved the eradication of smallpox, promoting mass immunization against a number of other preventable diseases; improving mental health; providing safe water supplies; and training health personnel of all categories. Progress towards better health throughout the world also demands international cooperation in such matters as establishing international standards for biological substances, pesticides and pharma­ ceuticals; formulating environmental health criteria; recommending international nonproprietary names for drugs; administering the International Health Regulations; revising the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems and collecting and disseminating healih statistical information.
