DRUG AND PRECURSOR FIELD TEST KITS
[Pages:4]DRUG AND PRECURSOR FIELD
TEST KITS
What are the UNODC drug and
precursor field test kits?
They are kits containing necessary reagents, tools and easy step-by-step instructions to conduct approximatively 200 rapid and simple colour tests for the preliminary field identification of drugs and precursors most commonly encountered in the illicit traffic.
These portable, shockproof and water resistant kits assist front-line
O officers to interdict the trafficking of drugs and precursors.
N
O Which drugs and precursors
can be tested?
Drug test kit: Common drugs such as amphetamine, methamphetamine, "ectasy", barbiturates, cannabis and cannabis products, cocaine, heroin, methaqualone, methylphenidate, morphine and opium.
N Precursor test kit: Starting materials and chemi-
cals most commonly used in the illicit manufacture of drugs: e.g. acetic anhydride, piperidine, anthranilic acid, ergometrine, lysergic acid, ephedrine, pseudoephedrine and 1-phenyl-2-propanone (P-2-P), safrole, acteone, methyl ethyl ketone, hydrochloric acid, sulphuric acid and toluene.
Do you have a specific request?
UNODC can tailor the drug & precursor kits to meet your needs. In addition, instructions for the formulations of the test reagents are provided with the kits to allow users to refill the kits with the assistance of local laboratories.
A pocket kit containing a single test targeting a specific group of substances can also be requested (e.g. acetic anhydride pocket kits).
What results can the kits give?
The kits give preliminary indications of the nature of an unknown substance within seconds. They help investigators to make rapid decisions on-site.
As the kit results are presumptive, they should not be used as a definite identification leading to prosecution. When they indicate the possible presence of an illicit substance, the suspected material must be submitted to an authorized laboratory for further confirmatory tests.
Who can use the UNODC field drug & precursor test kits?
The UNODC test kits can be used by front-line law enforcement officers, border control officers, custom officers, forensic drug experts and prison officers to efficiently conduct presumptive tests of unknown substances on-site.
More detailed information about the kits are available online at:

How can UNODC assist Member States with
the use of the kits?
Upon request, UNODC furnishes a computerbased training (CBT) programme on the use of the kits, as well as customisable workshops based on the needs of end users.
In addition, numerous publications of the UNODC scientific and forensic services programme are available online at:

UNODC RESEARCH ON TRAFFICKING The UNODC field drug & precursor test kits are solely produced by the IN PERSONS AND SMUGGLING OF MIGRANTS UNODC Laboratory and Scientific Section in limited numbers. They can
be requested with a contribution of US$ 180 per kit. The pocket kits are available upon request for US$ 30 per kit. The computer-based training (CBT) programme can also be requested with an additional contribution of US$ 10. Shipping costs, taxes and any other unforeseen charges, e.g. storage, are not included in these prices.
