LSD (Lysergic Acid Diethylamide)
Introduction: Why Choose LSD at Psychedelics Lab?
LSD, also known as lysergic acid diethylamide, is a classical psychedelic renowned for its profound effects on perception, cognition, and mood. It has played a pivotal role in neuroscience, psychiatry, and consciousness research for decades. Psychedelics Lab provides LSD with guaranteed purity levels exceeding 98%, following stringent synthesis and quality control protocols. This high standard ensures that researchers in the USA and Europe receive consistent, reliable materials to conduct accurate and reproducible experiments.
What Is LSD?
LSD is a semi-synthetic ergoline derivative that acts primarily as a serotonin 5-HT2A receptor agonist. It is psychoactive at extremely low doses, typically in the microgram range, making purity and precise dosing especially critical. LSD produces visual and auditory hallucinations, altered time perception, and complex cognitive shifts. The compound demonstrates good stability under controlled conditions but requires careful handling to prevent degradation, especially from heat, light, and alkaline environments. Research on LSD spans from brain imaging and receptor characterization to psychiatric therapy development.
Popular LSD Research Chemical
| Product Name | Purity Level | CAS Number | Research Use Cases | Availability in USA/EU |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| LSD (Lysergic Acid Diethylamide) | ≥98% | 50-37-3 | Neuropharmacology, psychiatric research, receptor binding assays | Available |
LSD supplied by Psychedelics Lab is synthesized with careful control and verified through advanced analytical methods such as HPLC and UV-spectrophotometry to confirm identity and purity.
Why Purity Matters: Psychedelics Lab Standard
Due to LSD’s extremely low effective dosage and potent effects, purity is paramount. Impurities or degradation products can affect experimental results or safety profiles. Psychedelics Lab adheres to rigorous quality assurance processes, employing validated chromatographic methods with system suitability testing. Certificates of Analysis from third-party labs are provided to confirm ≥98% purity, ensuring dependable research-grade material.
FAQ: How Is Purity Determined?
Purity determination involves high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with UV detection, supported by additional methods like mass spectrometry where needed, to measure composition and detect trace impurities accurately.
Safety, Compliance, and Delivery
Psychedelics Lab complies with research chemical regulations in the USA and Europe, marketing LSD exclusively for scientific use with disclaimers regarding legal status and purchase responsibilities. Shipments are carefully packaged with discrete, insured delivery. For stability, LSD should be stored in cool, dark, and dry conditions to prevent degradation caused by heat, light, or metal ion contamination.
How to Choose LSD for Research
LSD is an essential compound for investigators studying serotonin receptor dynamics, cortical connectivity, and psychedelic effects in psychiatric models. Researchers should factor in the compound’s high potency and stability factors when planning studies. Psychedelics Lab offers dedicated technical support to assist with tailored research parameters.
