  • 3 more US seizures

    The El Paso (Texas) Police Department?s Crime Laboratory recently received a polydrug submission including two different type of glass vials labelled as containing nandralone and boldenone, respectively, and three different types of tablets, two in containers labelled oxycodone and hydrocodone, respectively, and the third in an unlabelled heat-sealed plastic bag. The exhibits were seized at the El Paso airport by TSA personnel, pursuant to a screening search of a suspect and a
    followup search of the suspect?s luggage. The first exhibit (see Photo 1) included one tampered (opened/partially used) and two factory-sealed amber 10 milliliter vials, each labelled ?Anabolico Esteroide? from Ttokkyo Laboratories, and listing nandrolone decanoate 300 milligrams as their contents. The liquid in each vial was analyzed separately; analysis of methanolic extracts by GC/MS, however, indicated not nandralone but rather boldenone (not quantitated); separate analyses of hexane/acetonitrile extracts by GC/MS confirmed boldenone. The second exhibit (see Photo 2) included two factory-sealed clear 50 milliliter vials, each labelled ?Equipoise? and ?Made in Mexico for Fort Dodge Animal Health,? and listing boldenone 50 milligrams as their contents. Standard workup and analysis by GC/MS confirmed boldenone (not quantitated). The third exhibit (no photo) included 18 white tablets, submitted in a prescription container labeled oxycodone.
    Pharmaceutical identification, acid/base workup, and analysis of a chloroform extract by GC/MS, however, indicated not oxycodone but rather hydrocodone (not quantitated). The fourth exhibit (no photo) included 78 white tablets, submitted in a pharmaceutical type container labeled hydrocodone.
    Pharmaceutical identification, acid/base workup, and analysis of a chloroform extract by GC/MS confirmed hydrocodone (not quantitated). The fifth exhibit included 100 red pentagonal tablets (4 millimeters across each edge of the pentagon), submitted in an unlabelled heat-sealed plastic bag. Each tablet was imprinted with the letter ?T? on one side and the number 10 on the opposite side (see Photo 3). This tablet type and logos were not found in any pharmaceutical reference. Analysis of methanolic and separately of chloroform extracts by GC/MS indicated stanozolol (not quantitated). These are the first submissions of foreign-produced steroids to the laboratory.

        That just shows it's hard to tell exactly what you are getting sometimes.

        Definitely good post
