Abstract

The drug trafficking problem in Rajasthan is quite common as Rajasthan is the largest state in India, and many international and interstate borders surround it. Illicit traffickers can add unlimited diluents and adulterants to heroin. Only 5% or less than that alkaloid is present; the rest is of diluents and adulterants. Adulterants can associate with a significant risk of overdose, which may lead to death due to severe poisoning. Thus, the purity of drugs may vary, and the presence and percentage of diluents and adulterants depend on the region. The present article aims to identify and separate diluents and adulterants from diacetylmorphine drug samples. The illicit drug samples were deposited for investigations in the narcotics division of the state forensic science laboratory, Jaipur. During studies, sophisticated instruments like GCMS confirmed the preliminary results obtained from TLC and color tests. The variety and quantity of adulterants and diluents differ in all the samples, but the pattern is similar. The extensive and widespread cutting agent of illicit drugs used to analyze these drug samples.

非法药物(海洛因)样品中常见掺假和稀释剂的分析和分离

由于拉贾斯坦邦是印度最大的邦，许多国际和州际边界围绕着拉贾斯坦邦，因此拉贾斯坦邦的毒品贩运问题相当普遍。非法贩运者可以向海洛因中添加无限量的稀释剂和掺假剂。只有5%或更少的生物碱存在;其余的是稀释剂和掺假剂。掺假物可能与过量服用的重大风险有关，过量服用可能导致严重中毒而死亡。因此，药物的纯度可能不同，稀释剂和掺假剂的存在和百分比取决于地区。本文旨在鉴别和分离二乙酰吗啡药物样品中的稀释剂和掺假物。非法药物样本被存放在斋浦尔国家法医科学实验室的麻醉品部门进行调查。在研究过程中，像GCMS这样的精密仪器证实了从TLC和颜色测试中获得的初步结果。所有样品中掺假剂和稀释剂的种类和数量不同，但模式相似。用于分析这些药物样本的广泛和广泛的非法药物切割剂。

期刊介绍： RASĀYAN Journal of Chemistry [RJC] signifies a confluence of diverse streams of chemistry to stir up the cerebral powers of its contributors and readers. By introducing the journal by this name, we humbly intent to provide an open platform to all researchers, academicians and readers to showcase their ideas and research findings among the people of their own fraternity and to share their vast repository of knowledge and information. The journal seeks to embody the spirit of enquiry and innovation to augment the richness of existing chemistry literature and theories. We also aim towards making this journal an unparalleled reservoir of information and in process aspire to inculcate and expand the research aptitude.
