General description

Anhydroecgonine methyl ester, or methylecgonidine, is a metabolite of smoked crack cocaine. This cocaine analog is also used as an ingredient in the production of phenyltropanes, a class of drugs used to treat cocaine dependency. This certified solution standard is suitable for use in LC/MS or GC/MS applications for urine drug testing, clinical toxicology, or forensic analysis.
