  • Title: Optical crystallographic properties of drugs of abuse: commonly used amines street drugs.
    Author: Julian EA, Plein EM.
    Journal: J Pharm Sci; 1981 Jun; 70(6):704-7. PubMed ID: 7252828.
    Abstract:
    The optical crystallographic properties of the diliturate derivatives of amine drugs found in illicit street drug preparations known as "white crosses," "mini-bennies," or "whites" were determined. The crystallographic properties, especially the crystal morphology, extinction angles, and indexes of refraction, identify the drug substances found in the white cross suite. These data can be used with UV and IR spectroscopic and chromatographic evaluations for drug identification.
