General description

LSD, or lysergic acid diethylamide, is an illicit psychedelic drug with potent hallucinogenic effects such as altered thinking processes, closed- and open-eye visuals, synesthesia and an altered sense of time. This Snap-N-Spike® reference solution is suitable for use in urine drug testing, clinical toxicology, or forensic analysis by LC-MS/MS or GC/MS.

Application


  • LSD as an analytical standard in neuroscience: Research highlights the application of LSD in studies examining sleep patterns, showcasing its value as a certified reference material in psychopharmacological investigations. This underscores LSD′s role in enhancing our understanding of its effects on brain function and sleep architecture (Allen et al., 2024).

  • High-purity lysergic acid diethylamide in pharmacological research: Studies use high-purity LSD solution to investigate its pharmacological properties, particularly its interaction with neurotransmitter systems. This research is crucial for developing new therapeutic approaches for treating substance use disorders, leveraging LSD′s properties as a neurotransmitter research application (Tap, 2024).
