I’m still thinking about how to build a good database. I’d like to get data from proper labs who have access or can identify a pure sample, so there is a base data set for all substances to compare against as accessing pure samples illicitly is practically impossible.
From there, yes I would like to build data for common cutting agents & process impurities to determine sample purity.
In terms of what substances I’d be looking at: I’d start with MDMA and it’s numerous impersonators as well as the many things commonly found in “ecstasy”.
That’s a big task in itself, but the data would be applicable to a wider application of identifying almost any drug.
In theory, these should be fairly simple samples to analyse as, with mdma for example, it’s only one chemical, rather than a plant which may contain thousands of different chemicals. Right?
I’m only just starting to get my head around this device so there’s a long way to go before I actually start building a database & model.
Hiya Johnboy,
This is the main reason I invested in a Scio Dev kit. It’s something I’m intending to put a serious amount of work into as I think it can really change the world of Harm Reduction.
My Scio arrived a couple of days ago so I’m just starting out with this project. Currently I have no experience developing and have a rudimentary understanding of the system/processes behind this technology but luckily I have some amazing people around me who are keen to get involved. I would love to work with others around the world to make this a reality.
Let’s do it!
