Store-purchased gummies that visually matched the submitted sample were also analyzed, and the total-ion chromatogram is very similar to the sample gummy. The sample gummy had no unknown peaks detected.
Sep 1 2021: No drugs were detected in these gummies after multiple re-analyses.
The lab specifically searched for signs of tryptamines and there aren't any. Psilocin, Psilocybin, and 4-Acetoxy-DMT are all ruled out with certainty.
The baseline chromatogram (the output from the GC/MS process that is examined for the presence of a drug or drugs) of this sample is very 'busy', much like a store-bought gummy candy, which the lab also purchased and analyzed for the purpose of comparison.
In other candies that the lab has tested in the past that contain a drug or have a drug on their surface, the drugs are easily seen as GC peaks.
Send in a sample for testing
DrugsData tests all psychoactive drugs including ecstasy tablets, powders, research chemicals, novel pschoactive substances, and other drugs through our licensed laboratory. Ecstasy/Molly tablets cost $100. Recreational drug powder/crystal/blotter costs $100. Pharmaceuticals, supplements and all others cost $150 per analysis.
Should the public have access to independent analysis of the products they consume?
The vast majority of analyses of over-the-counter, prescription, and recreational drugs are performed in secret with no independent oversite or review. No other historical record, free from politically-controlled agencies, is currently available in North America nor most other parts of the world.
DrugsData, a project of Erowid Center, needs the support of professionals, students, parents, individuals with means, and small foundations for a total yearly budget of around $120,000 USD. Erowid Center's general budget and the co-pays we require fund most of this cost.
Per sender: 'It appears to be store-bought gummy bears with some dried residue of a liquid that was dripped on it. You can see the marks.'
