Summary of the research project

The stability of new psychoactive substances in various biological matrices is well researched and studied, however there is little information surrounding the reference material itself. As the analysis of new psychoactive substances is not routinely conducted within a forensic toxicology laboratory, once opened reference material may be in use for a long period of time. It is therefore important that the longevity of these materials be further examined to ensure accurate reporting of case samples.
