Transparency Testing FAQs

Transparency Testing can test a diverse range of substances, including psychoactive substances, gel tabs, gummies, supplements, nootropics, pharmaceuticals, plant preparations, tinctures, pills, powders, blotters, fungi, and extracts. We also assess pesticide residues and other toxic additives. Our lab employs advanced methods to quantify major components and identify active ingredients, even in trace amounts. However, we do not test radioactive, biological, or biohazardous materials. See our Services page to read about which services test what.

Results are typically available within one week from when your sample arrives at our lab. While shipping times vary, using a fast shipping option with tracking can expedite the process.

A PDF report with your results will be sent to your email, with the subject “Your Analysis Results are Ready from Transparency Testing.” Make sure to check your Spam folder! Results are typically available within one week from when your sample arrives at our lab. If it has been over a week since your sample arrived at our lab, and you still have not received your results, feel free to reach out to us at testing@infinitetransparency.com.

After placing your order, you will receive an order confirmation, followed by an email with the mailing instructions for where and how to send your sample. If you ordered multiple services, you will receive multiple Shipping Instructions emails! For each Sample ID, the email’s subject will be “IMPORTANT: Shipping Instructions for Sample ID XXXX.” Check your Spam folder if you do not receive this email! If you ordered multiple services, make sure to send each sample to the correct address, and label each sample separately. Some sample types need to go to our domestic lab, others need to go to our international lab, depending on the nature of the sample. Samples sent with improper labeling will not be accepted.

Our U.S.-based lab will analyze:

• Cannabis Product (Flower, Edibles, Extracts)
• Mushroom Product (Fruiting Body, Edibles, Extracts)
• Natural Plant or Cactus Material (DMT, mescaline)
• Kratom or Kratom-Based Product

Our Spain-based lab will analyze:

• Powders (MDMA, Cocaine, Ketamine, etc.)
• Pills (Oxy, Ecstasy, Xanax, etc.)
• Blotter, Gel Tabs, Liquids (LSD, GHB, PCP)

1. Prepare your substance according to the instructions (the amount needed will be provided).
2. Place your sample into a small plastic test tube/vial, or sealable baggie. If it is liquid, it must be in a plastic test tube/vial and sealed with tape. 
3. Place this test tube, vial, or baggie into another ziplock baggie. If it is liquid, we recommend double bagging your sample. 
4. Label your ziplock bag with your Sample ID (make sure to include the “TT”). 
5. Put your labeled ziplock bag with your sample into an envelope, preferably a bubble-wrapped envelope to ship. Drop your envelope in a mailbox, or take it to the post office (or private courier of your choice) to ship and receive tracking. You will receive the shipping address upon placing an order.

Properly packed, small amounts of samples are safe to mail. We do not accept or process samples that are radioactive, biological, or pose other physical dangers. Incorrectly packaged or unsafe samples will be discarded.

Write the lab’s address in both the sender and recipient fields on your envelope. Nothing on the outside of the package points back to you, nothing is falsified, and if the envelope is undeliverable it comes to us rather than to you. This is the same approach used by established mail-in drug-checking programs and it is what your Shipping Instructions email will ask you to do. Do not list your own address, and do not invent one.

Getting tracking with your shipment is the best way to ensure your sample will arrive safely, and that you know where it is if there are any delays. While this may require going into a post office, it is the best way to ensure your sample will arrive.

Yes, but each sample needs to be labeled with their individual Sample IDs. If you put samples in the same envelope, make sure these samples are supposed to go to the same lab! Some sample types need to go to our domestic lab, others need to go to our international lab, depending on the nature of the sample. Follow the address in the Shipping Instructions email for each Sample ID.

Our labs are licensed to do this work where they operate. In Spain, analyzing small quantities for harm reduction has been lawful for decades. Our Colorado lab handles only what Colorado permits.

Whether you can lawfully possess or mail your sample is a separate question, and it depends on where you live. Drug laws vary by state, and federal law applies regardless of state law. A few states have passed drug checking laws; most have not. Please look into the rules where you are.

Privacy is extremely important to us. Providing personal information is not necessary, and paying with cryptocurrency keeps your payment details private. If you choose to provide personal information, such as paying by credit card, your information is secure and protected under our privacy policy. We will never share any personal information, and your order information is deleted from our systems one month after your results are delivered.

Yes—but not yours. Write the lab’s address in both the sender and recipient fields, exactly as it appears in your Shipping Instructions email. Every shipping option accepts this, including Priority and tracked services that require a sender address. It keeps your address off the package entirely, and if the envelope cannot be delivered it is returned to our lab instead of to you. Do not leave the sender field blank and do not list a made-up address.

If you cannot send your sample into our lab, at-home testing is an excellent alternative. Though at-home testing is not as accurate as lab testing, it is still much safer than not testing at all. There are many options for at-home test kits for almost any substance on the market, along with fent strips and xyl strips at BunkPolice.com.

If a sample does not make it to our lab after 2 months, we will provide a full refund for the cost of the test purchased. Unfortunately, we cannot refund shipping costs.

Due to legal restrictions, U.S.-based labs cannot analyze every substance on the market. Our U.S.-based lab can analyze cannabis, mushrooms, DMT, mescaline, and kratom. Our international lab can analyze powders (MDMA, Cocaine, Ketamine, etc.), pills (Oxy, Ecstasy, Xanax, etc.), blotters, geltabs, liquids (LSD, GHB, PCP), and more.

We can offer custom analyses tailored to your specific needs, whether you require unique NMR experiments, specific mass spectrometry tests, or particular extraction procedures. Contact us with your requirements—we are committed to accommodating individual needs.

For more than 10 samples, please contact us to discuss bulk testing options. We offer discounts depending on the number of samples submitted for analysis.

We need a minimum of 10 grams, or 6 servings / 1 package. If you are looking to measure the milligram amount per serving, we recommend sending a full package (a full chocolate bar or pack of gummies) with at least 6 servings. If it is a single-serving edible, we need a minimum of 10 grams of the edible.

Yes, gel tabs can be tested with our international lab.
