'''Reagent testing kits''' is a drug testing method that uses chemical solutions that change in color when applied to a chemical compound. They can help determine what chemical might be present in a given sample. In many cases they do not rule out the possibility of another similar compound being present in addition to or instead of the one suspected. | '''Reagent testing kits''' is a drug testing method that uses chemical solutions that change in color when applied to a chemical compound.

Although very few substances are effective at dosages that allow the use of paper blotters, [[LSD]] is not the only one: It's essential to test for its presence to avoid substances of the [[Nbome|NBOMe]] class. Additionally, it's becoming increasingly important to test for possible [[Fentanyl]] contamination, since this substance is effective at dosages that make it possible to put very high quantities on a single blotter. | |||
NOTE: Reagents can only determine the presence, not the quantity or purity, of a particular substance. Dark color reactions will tend to override reactions to other substances also in the pill. A positive or negative reaction for a substance does not indicate that a drug is safe. No drug use is 100% safe. Make good decisions. | NOTE: Reagents can only determine the presence, not the quantity or purity, of a particular substance.
