IMPORTANT: Never have more than one reagent bottle open at a time. If you mix up the caps and put the wrong cap on the wrong reagent bottle, this may cross-contaminate the reagents. Be sure and perform the tests in a well-lighted location.

Use the Mecke reagent to determine whether your pill contains an Ecstasy-like substance (MDMA, MDA, or MDE).

1. Scrape a tiny bit of your pill onto a large, white ceramic plate (an amount about the size of the head of a pin is fine). If you have a gel cap, just use a small amount of the powder.
2. Take the reagent bottle out of the plastic safety container. Remove the cap and turn it upside-down over the powder. In a few seconds a drop will come out.
3. Observe the color change right away. Use the Mecke color chart and the Mecke color change descriptions below to evaluate your test.
4. Turn the bottle back upright, close the lid tightly, and put it back into the plastic safety container.

If the powder contains an ecstasy-like substance (MDMA, MDA, or MDE), the reagent will immediately turn dark green/turquoise and then change right away to a dark blue (almost black). All this will happen very quickly so watch closely. This is a positive test for an ecstasy-like substance.

If this happens, proceed to Step #2, Simon's reagent, to determine whether your pill contains only MDA, or whether it contains MDMA or MDE. (Note: No reagent currently exists that can distinguish MDMA from MDE. An older color chart that once circulated the Internet, like this one at EZ-Test, suggests otherwise. It is wrong.). MDE, it should also be noted, is very rare.

DXM, the cough suppressant, will turn a yellowish-brown color within the first fifteen seconds. This indicates you definitely do not have an ecstasy-like substance in your pill. Proceed to Step #3.

If the reagent turns a bright reddish-orange and fades to a deep reddish-purple, this indicates the presence of 2CT-7. You definitely do not have an ecstasy-like substance in your pill. There are no more tests to perform. Proceed to Step #3.

If the reagent does not change any color during the first 20 seconds, or if it produces some other color-change sequence, then the pill definitely does not contain any of the above substances. It may also be highly adulterated with one or more unknown substances. There are no more tests to perform. Proceed to Step #3.

(Note: If the reagent did not change color during the first 20 seconds, the pill still might contain amphetamine or methamphetamine. If you want to find out, proceed to the Marquis reagent instructions down below.)

The Simon's reagent actually consists of two reagents in two, separate bottles, marked "A" and "B". Bottle "A" has a yellow label, and bottle "B" has a lime-green label. Use the Simon's reagent to determine whether your pill contains MDA, or whether it contains MDMA or MDE.

Important: This test is to be used only after you have first received a positive result with Mecke reagent. It is not a replacement for step #1, and it should never be used alone. Always use Mecke reagent first, to identify an MDMA-like drug in your pill. Only afterwards should you use this test.

1. On a new plate (or a clean section of the same plate, far away from any extraneous drops of Mecke reagent) scrape off another tiny bit of your pill.
2. Be sure that you have put the cap back on the Mecke reagent bottle, to avoid accidentally confusing the caps later on and causing cross-contamination of the reagents.
3. Take reagent bottle "A" (the yellow label) out of its plastic safety container. Remove the cap and turn it upside-down over the powder. In a few seconds, a drop will come out. Put a drop or two on the powder. (Note: The reagent is a dull "red" color. This is just the color of the solution in bottle "A", and does not indicate anything yet. It is only after the second solution is mixed with the first that you need to observe a possible color change.)
4. Put the cap back onto bottle "A" and put the bottle back into its plastic safety container.
5. Take reagent bottle "B" (the lime-green label) out of its plastic safety container, remove the cap and add a drop of the solution into the same powder/liquid already on the plate from step 3. Replace the cap and put the bottle back into its safety container.
6. Observe the color change. Use the Simon's color chart and the Simon's color change description below to evaluate your test.
7. When you are finished, rinse the reagent down the drain immediately.

Note: In some kits, solution A may be a dull sea-green color, or it may be clear. This is normal. What you're looking for is a change in color. In all cases, the presence of MDMA/MDE/Methamphetamine will be indicated by a change to a bright cobalt blue. If no color change is observed when solution B is added, there is no MDMA present.

After a positive test with Mecke: If the reagent turns bright cobalt blue within 20 seconds (and you've already observed a positive test for an ecstasy-like substance with Mecke reagent), then your pill contains MDMA or MDE. If your pill tested positive for speed with the Marquis regent, then a blue color means it contains methamphetamine.

If the reagent does not turn a bright cobalt blue, but stays the same color as solution "A" (and if you've already observed a positive test for an ecstasy-like substance with Mecke reagent), then your pill contains MDA and not MDMA or MDE. There are no more tests to perform. Proceed to Step #3.

After a positive test with Marquis: If you are using Simon's reagent because you first used Marquis reagent and it indicated a speed-like substance was in your pill, then a cobalt blue color change here indicates the presence of methamphetamine, and no color change indicates amphetamine. Proceed to Step #3.

1. Ecstasy testing kits do not detect strength or purity. A positive test for the presence of ecstasy does NOT mean the pill is "pure," "good," or "safe" to take. No drug use is 100% safe. All drug use contains inherent risk.

2. NEVER have more than one reagent bottle open at a time. If you mix up the caps and put the wrong cap on the wrong reagent bottle, this may cross-contaminate the reagents.

3. It takes time for a drop of the reagent to come out. This is because it needs to flow through a small pipette attached to the inside neck of the bottle. This is a special spill-proof safety dispenser. Be patient. Do not attempt to remove the dispenser.

4. Make sure and hold the tip of the dispenser at least one inch above the powder. If you hold it too close to the powder, the drop of reagent might make contact with the powder before it completely separates from the dispenser. This can cause the ecstasy to flow upward into the tip of the dispenser, and contaminate the rest of the reagent.

Use the Marquis reagent (white label) if you want to test whether your pill contains a speed-like substance (amphetamine or methamphetamine). Marquis reagent also serves to differentiate ecstasy-like substances from certain opiate drugs, such as codeine, although we never found an opiate drug in a over 800 laboratory tested ecstasy tablets.

• To use Marquis reagent to test for the presence of speed (amphetamine or methamphetamine) follow the same instructions as if you were using Mecke to test for an ecstasy-like substance. Use the color chart and the color-change descriptions below to evaluate your results.

Marquis Color Chart

Marquis Color Change Descriptions

If the reagent turns bright orange within 20 seconds, this indicates the presence of a speed-like substance (amphetamine or methamphetamine). Proceed to Step #2 (Simon's reagent) to determine which speed-like substance the pill contains.

If the reagent turns black with a possible dark purplish or bluish tint, then it contains either an ecstasy-like substance (MDMA, MDA or MDE), or the cough suppressant DXM.

The DXM reaction is typically slower, with about a five-second delay before it begins to change slowly from gray to black. An ecstasy-like substance will usually begin changing color immediately, sometimes even bubbling and fizzing in the beginning (which usually happens with pure powder in gel caps). However, this is not always the case.

If the reagent turns a greenish-yellow color within 20 seconds, this likely indicate the presence of 2C-B (definitely not ecstasy or speed). There are no more tests to perform. Proceed to Step #3.

Note: If the reagent turns a violet color (reddish-purple, not bluish-purple) within 20 seconds, this may indicate the presence of an opiate drug, such as codeine, although it could be something else. Either way, it is definitely not ecstasy or speed. There are no more tests to perform. Proceed to Step #3.

If the reagent does not change a bright orange color, or if it produces a different color change sequence than appears in the Marquis color chart, the pill definitely contains neither ecstasy nor speed. There are no more tests to perform. Proceed to Step #3.
