Yes, reagent tests identify a wide range of substances. They do not guarantee something is “safe”. Even pure drugs are dangerous.
Liebermann and mandelin detect ketamine with a noticeable colour change. The marquis reagent then gives no colour change for K, but does change colour for many cutting agents.
This is normal, please see your instruction sheet for more information or contact us by email.

- Liebermann – just under 1 year,
- Marquis – 6-9 months,
- Mecke – 5-7 months,
- Mandelin – 5-7 months,
