lsd under blacklight

as you are

I did read somewhere that the trace of lsd can be seen under a blacklight, However, that was just on another forum and holds no credibility whatsoever without sources really, or at least a detailed description...

I'm actually curious on this subject as well? What chemical properties within the LSD sythesis could react with light to the exposure of a blacklight.... I'd say best way to find out is to see which ingrediant reacts if at all...

LSD will fluoresce blue under uv light. A property supposedly exploited by law enforcement when testing suspect LSD.

Not sure if it's actually visual to the human eye.

I doubt there is sufficient concentration in blotter of gel form for this to be of use. A strong vial might light up, maybe?

It will indeed light up it looks a bit funky but you can see it. Your going to need more then a hit to see like a 10 strip will do.

Idk about this one...;
A lot of people say you can see lsd under a blacklight. Is this true?
Yes, it is true. Granted, on white blotter.. anything will fluoresce (since white paper appears to fluoresce by itself!)

Many other substances fluoresce under Ultra Violet light.. but rule of thumb, if you have a vial of acid or blotters, a black light (ultraviolet light), will indeed make it fluoresce a slight blue color. Finally, UV light destroys LSD (so holding it under the light for a few minutes is a bad idea! Five to ten seconds is fine though).

EDIT: A vial or liquid on a sugar cube/ smartie/ your hand, will fucking shine!

the blacklight thing dont work so much anymore, alot of liquids glow under a blacklight, laundry deterg etc, easily take a drop of that on a cube, let you check it under the light and burp up bubbles later

a lot of liquids do fluoresce under UV light... not as many fluoresce blue. It's still a valid field test.
