'''Research chemicals''' (also called '''experimental chemicals''' or '''unresearched chemicals''') are psychoactive substances which have undergone little to no human or animal medical research or investigation.<ref name="faq">Research Chemical FAQ - Experimental and Research Chemicals used as Psychoactives by Erowid & Murple v 1.6 - Jun 4, 2010 (Erowid) | https://www.erowid.org/psychoactives/research_chems/research_chems_faq.shtml</ref> The use of research chemicals may be more risky than the use of more well-studied drugs such as [[MDMA]], or [[cannabis]] because of the lack of studies. Most information about research chemicals is based on first-hand experiences and anecdotal evidence. More than one hundred research chemicals, including [[2C-E]] and [[DOM]], were discovered by Alexander Shulgin and written about in his books [[PiHKAL]] and [[TiHKAL]]. | '''Research chemicals''' (also called '''experimental chemicals''' or '''unresearched chemicals''') are psychoactive substances which have undergone little to no human or animal medical research or investigation.<ref name="faq">Research Chemical FAQ - Experimental and Research Chemicals used as Psychoactives by Erowid & Murple v 1.6 - Jun 4, 2010 (Erowid) | https://www.erowid.org/psychoactives/research_chems/research_chems_faq.shtml</ref> The use of research chemicals may be more risky than the use of more well-studied drugs such as [[MDMA]], or [[cannabis]] because of the lack of studies.

A millgram scale combined with [[volumetric liquid dosing]] is by far the safest way to measure a substance because most standard milligram scales alone cannot accurately weigh out doses below 10-15mg.<ref>3-MeO-PCP (Tripsit) | https://wiki.tripsit.me/wiki/3-MeO-PCP</ref> Volumetric liquid dosing is the process of dissolving a compound in a liquid to make it easier to measure. | A millgram scale combined with [[volumetric liquid dosing]] is by far the safest way to measure a substance because most standard milligram scales alone cannot accurately weigh out doses below 10-15mg.<ref>3-MeO-PCP (Tripsit) | https://wiki.tripsit.me/wiki/3-MeO-PCP</ref> Volumetric liquid dosing is the process of dissolving a compound in a liquid to make it easier to measure. | ||
