3 Define clandestine laboratories. Identify the 5 types of clandestine labs. Describe the 4 most common meth manufacturing methods. Training Objectives Meth Labs v1 3
4 Identify the 5 meth lab processes. Identify meth users and the dangers they present to public safety personnel Training Objectives (2) Meth Labs v1 4
5 If you Google Meth, How many results do you think you ll get? Answer: 14,800,000 How Prevalent is Meth? Meth Labs v1 5
6 An illicit operation consisting of a sufficient combination of apparatus and chemicals that either has been or could be used in the manufacture or synthesis of controlled substances. Clandestine Laboratory Defined Meth Labs v1 6
7 Clandestine laboratories are classified into five separate categories: 1) Extraction Laboratories 2) Conversion Laboratories 3) Synthesis Laboratories 4) Tableting Laboratories 5) Multiple Process Laboratories Types of Labs Meth Labs v1 7
8 The finished drug is removed from raw (plant) or pharmaceutical materials by use of chemical solvents. The structure of the drug is not altered. For example: Morphine from Opium Hashish or Hash Oil from Cannabis Ephedrine from Pseudoephedrine Extraction Laboratories Meth Labs v1 8
9 One form of a drug is changed into a more desirable form. The drug s chemical structure remains unchanged. For example: Cocaine Hydrochloride to Crack Methamphetamine to Ice Conversion Laboratory Meth Labs v1 9
10 Raw materials combined through a chemical process to produce a desired drug. The original materials may already be controlled substances. For example: Meth from Pseudoephedrine PCP from Piperidine Heroin from Morphine Synthesis Laboratory Meth Labs v1 10
11 The forming of a finished drug product into a dosage unit by use of a machine. For example: Methaqualone (Quaalude) powder into pill form LSD to Blotter Paper or Window Panes GHB to Dosage Units Tableting Laboratory Meth Labs v1 11
12 Different types of labs or processes at the same location. For example: Pseudoephedrine extraction lab with a methamphetamine synthesis Methamphetamine synthesis lab with methcathinone synthesis Multiple Process Laboratory Meth Labs v1 12
13 In a clandestine laboratory, basic types of chemicals are necessary in order to produce the desired narcotic. They are : 1) Precursor Chemicals 2) Reagent Chemicals 3) Catalyst Chemicals 4) Solvent Chemicals Basic Chemical Requirements Meth Labs v1 13
14 A chemical that is essential to the production of a controlled substance and for which no substitution can be made. For example: Pseudoephedrine/Ephedrine for Meth Piperidine for Phencyclidine (PCP) Ephedrine for Methcathinone (CAT) Precursor Chemicals Meth Labs v1 14
15 Precursor Chemicals Meth Labs v1 15
16 Chemicals which react upon precursor causing it to chemically change. For example: Iodine - Meth Sulfuric Acid (Battery Acid) - Meth Hydrochloric Acid (Muriatic Acid) - Meth Sodium Hydroxide (Red Devil Lye) - Meth Salt - Meth Anhydrous Ammonia - Meth Sodium Cyanide - PCP Reagent Chemicals Meth Labs v1 16

21 Reagent Chemicals Largest Buried Cylinder Ever Located in US, Davidson County, NC Meth Labs v1 21
22 Reagent Chemicals Meth Labs v1 22
23 Chemicals which speeds up a reaction process and/or causes it to go to greater completion. For example: Red Phosphorus - Meth Lithium Metal - Meth Sodium Metal - Meth Catalyst Chemicals Meth Labs v1 23
24 Catalyst Chemicals Meth Labs v1 24
25 Catalyst Chemicals Meth Labs v1 25
26 Catalyst Chemicals Meth Labs v1 26
27 A medium (liquid) in which a chemical operation takes place. For example: Coleman Fuel /Camp Fuel Acetone Denatured alcohol Starting fluid Naphtha Methanol R11 Toluene Ether Freon Any Other Organic Solvent Solvent Chemicals Meth Labs v1 27
28 Red P Method: Chemicals needed Ephedrine or pseudoephedrine Red phosphorus Hydriodic acid (iodine crystals) Sodium hydroxide Organic solvents (ether, Freon, acetone) Hydrogen chloride gas (sulfuric acid and salt) A Heat Source is Required Meth Production Methods Meth Labs v1 28
29 Anhydrous Ammonia Method: Chemicals needed Ephedrine or pseudoephedrine Anhydrous ammonia Sodium or lithium metal Sodium hydroxide Organic solvents (ether, freon, acetone) Hydrogen chloride gas (sulfuric acid and salt) A Heat Source is NOT Required Meth Production Methods Meth Labs v1 29
30 Condensed Ammonia Method: Chemicals needed Ephedrine or pseudoephedrine Ammonium nitrate fertilizer Sodium or lithium metal Sodium hydroxide Organic solvents (ether, freon, acetone) Hydrogen chloride gas (sulfuric acid and salt) A Heat Source is NOT Required Meth Production Methods Meth Labs v1 30

38 Current Trends in Labs Lab seizures are increasing in every state. Ingredients are readily available. Recipes are on the Internet. Meth use is on the rise. Meth Labs v1 38
39 Meth Definition Methamphetamine is a synthetic stimulant drug which induces a strong feeling of euphoria and is highly psychologically and physically addictive. Pure methamphetamine is a colorless crystalline solid and is sold on the street as ice, glass or crystal. Meth Labs v1 39
40 Meth Definition (Cont.) It is also sold as a less pure crystalline powder called crank or speed, or in rock formation (like crack cocaine) called tweak, dope or raw. Meth Labs v1 40

45 Why Methamphetamine? Easy to make Easy to get the necessary ingredients HUGE profit margin Meth Labs v1 45
46 Meth Facts & Pharmacology Central nervous system stimulant like cocaine, but much stronger Can be injected, smoked, snorted, or taken orally Meth Labs v1 46
47 Meth Facts & Pharmacology (2) Increases heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature, breathing rate, and alertness Dilates pupils, produces euphoria, a sense of increased energy, and tremors High doses or chronic use have been associated with increased nervousness, irritability, and paranoia Withdrawal from high doses produces severe depression Meth Labs v1 47
48 Methamphetamine Effects Snorting methamphetamine produces a high within 3 to 5 minutes, while oral ingestion produces a high within 15 to 20 minutes. Oral ingestion or snorting produces a long lasting high, instead of an immediate rush, that can continue for as long as 12 to 15 hours depending on the amount of methamphetamine consumed. The rush and high are caused by the Meth Labs v1 48
49 Methamphetamine Effects (2) release of very high levels of the neurotransmitter dopamine into areas of the brain that regulate feelings of pleasure. One of the common uses for methamphetamine is the increase in sex drive that is experienced. As a result large amounts of pornography are generally located at the residences where methamphetamine users reside. Meth Labs v1 49
50 Methamphetamine Effects (3) Long Term Effects: Long term methamphetamine use has many damaging effects, including addiction. Addiction is characterized by compulsive drug seeking and drug use that is accompanied by functional and molecular changes in the brain. In addition to being addicted to methamphetamine, chronic users exhibit symptoms that include violent behavior Meth Labs v1 50
51 Methamphetamine Effects (4) anxiety, confusion, and insomnia, They also display a number of psychotic features, including paranoia, auditory and visual hallucinations, mood disturbances, and delusions. The paranoia can result in homicidal and suicidal thoughts. Tolerance can develop and result in the users using more methamphetamine in an attempt to obtain the initial feelings of Meth Labs v1 51
52 Methamphetamine Effects (5) euphoria. In some cases, users forgo food and sleep while using methamphetamine. The users indulge in what is called a run where they will inject up to a gram of Methamphetamine every 3 to 4 hours for several days. This behavior causes an extreme increase in violent and psychotic behavior. In these cases, there is also an increase in visual and auditory hallucinations. As a result of the repeated Meth Labs v1 52
53 Methamphetamine Effects (6) abuse, it has been determined that as much as 50% of the dopamine producing cells in the brain are damaged. It has also been determined that nerve cells containing serotonin are damaged even more extensively. Meth Labs v1 53
