Synthetic Cathinones and Their Rewarding and Reinforcing Effects in Rodents [PDF]
Advances in Neuroscience, 2014 Synthetic cathinones, colloquially referred to as “bath salts,” are derivatives of the psychoactive alkaloid cathinone found in Catha edulis (Khat). Since the mid-to-late 2000s, these amphetamine-like psychostimulants have gained popularity amongst drug users due to their potency, low cost, ease of procurement, and constantly evolving chemical ...

Journal of Separation Science, Volume 49, Issue 2, February 2026.ABSTRACT The analysis of interactions between biological agents or with surrounding chemicals is important in many areas of modern biochemical, biomedical, and environmental research. Microscale platforms based on affinity chromatography have been shown to be a powerful set of tools for these studies.

Structure-Activity Relationships of Synthetic Cathinones
, 2016 Until recently, there was rather little interest in the structure-activity relationships (SARs) of cathinone analogs because so few agents were available and because they represented a relatively minor drug abuse problem. Most of the early SAR was formulated on the basis of behavioral (e.g., locomotor and drug discrimination) studies using rodents ...

Increases in use of novel synthetic stimulant are not directly linked to decreased use of 3,4-methylenedioxy-N-methylamphetamine (MDMA) [PDF]
, 2013 A decline in 3,4-methylenedioxy-N-methylamphetamine (MDMA) use in Adelaide, Australia from 2009 to 2010 was confirmed by us previously. Reports suggested that the shortage in MDMA supply was associated with an increased prevalence of other synthetic ...

Market Analysis of Synthetic Drugs: Amphetamine-type Stimulants, New Psychoactive Substances [PDF]
, 2017 An estimated quarter of a billion people, or around 5 per cent of the global adult population, used drugs at least once in 2015. Even more worrisome is the fact that about 29.5 million of those drug users, or 0.6 per cent of the global adult population ...

Identification and characterization of a novel cathinone derivative 1-(2,3dihydro-1H-inden-5-yl)-2-phenyl-2-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)-ethanone seized by customs in Jersey [PDF]
, 2015 A suspicious white powder labeled “idanyl-biphenyl-amninone,” which was seized by customs officials at the "channel island" of Jersey, UK, was brought to our laboratory for identification and characterization of its structure.
