Furthermore, in four substances sold as MDMA, we found the new synthetic substance Clephedrone (4-CMC) was detected. In a sample sold as a "research chemical", the new synthetic substance Pentedron identified. The synthetic cathinone derivative was analysed for the first time by checkit!

Attention! Ecstasy with PMMA
In connection with the consumption of alleged ecstasy tablets containing the amphetamine derivative PMMA three deaths were reported in Poland. These were ecstasy tablets with the Superman logo (see image). Tablets with a similar appearance were already in circulation at the end of 2014/beginning of 2015. Consumption of these pills also led to several deaths in the UK at that time. Our warnings and further information can be found under the following links:

Attention! Emergencies after consumption of incense mixture
The European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction warns against the incense mixture "Mocarz": in Poland, hundreds of people have been hospitalised with symptoms of poisoning after consuming "Mocarz".
According to information from the National Institute of Medicines in Warsaw, changing ingredients were found in the product, as with other incense blends: JWH-203, JWH-081, JWH-019 (tested in 2010), UR-144 and 5F-AKB48 (tested in 2014) and UR-144 and 5-FUR-144 (XLR-11) (tested in 2015). According to more recent analyses, the synthetic cannabinoid MDMB-CHMICA was detected. The samples used for these analyses came from people with symptoms of intoxication. However, it is not yet clear whether all cases can be linked to the substance MDMB-CHMICA.
We strongly advise against the consumption of "Mocarz"!

Attention! Falsified analysis results!
Attention!!!
Relevant online shops are currently trying to prove the quality of their products with supposedly corresponding analysis results from checkit!
These analysis results are without exception falsified and say nothing about the composition of the products in these shops!
This procedure shows once again that online shops are in no way trustworthy and that information on quality etc. is fictitious. As we never hand out results in printed form, but only pass on results in a personal conversation, you can always assume that any images of checkit! results slips on the Internet are fakes!
