Clandestine operation The terms clandestine and covert are not synonymous. As noted in the definition (which has been used by the United States and NATO since World War II) in a covert operation the identity of the sponsor is concealed, while in a clandestine operation the operation itself is concealed.

What is Krokodil (desomorphine)? Homemade versions of the drug start with codeine, and can be ‘cooked’ similar to illicit methamphetamine (“meth”) production. Organic solvents such as gasoline, paint thinner, or lighter fluid, iodine, hydrochloric acid, and red phosphorus (from matches) are used in homemade synthesis. These dangerous chemicals are not always fully “cooked” out of the concoction when used to make illicit krokodil.

- 1 Perfume counterfeits are also illegal! 2  It is estimated that up to 10% of perfumes and toiletries in the market place are fakes. 3  Purchasing fake perfume supports criminal activity and may put local people out of jobs because the genuine perfume manufacturers cannot compete with the counterfeits sales. Perfumes countereits or fakes may contain dangerous chemicals that are used in place of authentic perfume ingredients – goat’s urine as a stabilizer, vodka as a cheap form of alcohol, and acetyl cedrene (chemical used in plastics and rubber), which will be absorbed by the skin and causes contact dermatitis.

Malachite green and formalin Malachite green and formalin are toxic poisons. Malachite green acts as a respiratory poison, damaging the cell’s ability produce energy to drive vital metabolic processes. Formalin is a powerful disinfectant used to kill microorganisms or as a preservative for biological specimens.ormalin is more toxic in soft, acidic water and also removes oxygen from water so vigorous aeration most be applied. Each 5mg of formalin removes 1 mg of dissolved oxygen from the water. Malachite green is also more toxic at low pH as well as high temperatures.

- Although offenders manufacture a variety of illicit drugs in clandestine labs [e.g., amphetamines, MDMA (ecstasy), methcathinone, PCP, LSD, and fentanyl], methamphetamine accounts for 80 to 90 percent of the clandestine labs’ total drug production.ypes of Clandestine Methamphetamine Labs. There are two main types of clandestine methamphetamine labs. One is the “super” lab—a large, highly organized lab that can manufacture 10 or more pounds of methamphetamine per production cycle.

GRAY Sterile blood collection tubes for laboratory procedures requiring plasma or whole blood chemistry procedures where glycolytic inhibition of specimen is required. The anti-glycolytic properties prevent the blood cells from using the glucose in the sample. Used instead of red top when there will be a delay in getting blood to the lab for a glucose level. Oxalate and EDTA are anticoagulants which will prevents the blood from clotting, sodium fluoride is a stabilizer.

Tin (IV) chloride Stannic chloride was used as a chemical weapon in World War I, as it formed an irritating (but non-deadly) dense smoke on contact with air: it was substituted for by a mixture of silicon tetrachloride and titanium tetrachloride near the end of the War due to shortages of tin.

Cyanide Poisoning A number of cyanide-containing compounds, known as cyanogens, may release cyanide during metabolism. Much of the cyanide used is in the form of salts, such as sodium, potassium, or calcium cyanide, but in the military cyanides are used in the volatile liquid hydrocyanic acid. Cyanide is also known by the military designations AN (for hydrogen cyanide) and CK (for cyanogens chloride).

- Quaternary Ammonium Compounds. Overview. The quaternary ammonium compounds are widely used as disinfectants. Health-care–associated infections have been reported from contaminated quaternary ammonium compounds used to disinfect patient-care supplies or equipment, such as cystoscopes or cardiac catheters 741, 742.ses. The quaternaries commonly are used in ordinary environmental sanitation of noncritical surfaces, such as floors, furniture, and walls. EPA-registered quaternary ammonium compounds are appropriate to use for disinfecting medical equipment that contacts intact skin (e.g., blood pressure cuffs).

Chemical Inventory Chemical Inventory. Chemical Inventory System (CIS) tracks the storage and use of hazardous materials on all UC campuses. UC Berkeley is required to report that information, and these reports are compiled by EH&S. In addition, CIS assists emergency responders and provides all lab members with a tool with which to track hazardous items in their rooms.

This assignment must be completed prior to attending this lab! Heavy metals, such as mercury, silver, and copper, denature proteins. Mercury compounds (mercurochrome, metaphen, merthiolate) are only bacteriostatic and are not effective against endospores. Silver nitrate (1%) is sometimes put in the eyes of newborns to prevent gonococcal ophthalmia. Copper sulfate is used to combat fungal diseases of plants and is also a common algicide.

What is the chemicals called that are sometimes used to make the specimen visible in a microscope? Chemicals used in making specimen visible in a microscope are called stains. They are chemical substances that enables to apply and make bacteria absorb chemicals into making them visible by having them applied with various color depending on the chemical that is applied. It makes the visible and make their structures and physical form to be seen under the use of a microscope.

- Forensic Drug Identification by Gas Chromatography- Infrared Spectroscopy . Award Number: 2008-DN-BX-K161 . Robert Shipman, Trisha Conti, PhD, Tara Tighe, MS and Eric Buel, PhD . ABSTRACT . The primary goal of the forensic drug examiner is the unequivocal identification of any controlled substance present in a drug exhibit. Most forensic laboratories routinely employ Gas Chromatography/ Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS) as the preferred method for this examination.

- P2P (Phenyl-2-propanone) is used in the methamphetamine cooking process. P2P style labs are very dangerous and considered rare because of the difficulty in obtaining the chemicals to complete the lab due to purchasing restrictions.
