Mephedrone

Stimulant and psychoactive properties similar to MDMA and cocaine characterize mephedrone (4-methylmethcathinone, 4-MMC), a synthetic cathinone and Schedule I controlled substance. Laboratory testing applications include forensic toxicology investigations involving impaired driving and sudden death cases, postmortem toxicology, emergency department clinical toxicology, and drug-facilitated crime assessments. UTAK’s Bath Salts synthetic cathinone panel contains mephedrone in frozen urine matrix to support mass spectrometry confirmation methods required for novel psychoactive substance detection. Stock and custom QC solutions can incorporate related synthetic cathinones such as MDPV, methylone, alpha-PVP, and other emerging compounds to address your laboratory’s comprehensive novel psychoactive substance testing requirements.
