Testing for Methamphetamine

 

If you have a rental property or are buying a property without a complete history then there is the possibility it may have been used for taking methamphetamine or even manufactured in a home built lab.

​

Properties with a history of meth contamination will sell well below market value and could cost tens of thousands of dollars to remediate.

Meth contamination is rarely visible and can have serious health implications. Are you willing to put your family’s health at risk?

​

Coleman Consulting can test for traces of Methamphetamine from suspected contaminated dwellings.

This normally involves taking 5 samples per property.

​

The test is carried out on wipe/swab samples according to NIOSH method 9111, and is IANZ accredited.

This includes testing for three precursor drugs; Ephedrine, Pseudoephedrine and Amphetamine.

Swab using a disposable 100mm x 100mm template, ‘Z’ shaped swab action.

Swab samples from the dwelling are taken and sent to the laboratory where they are extracted and analysed using LCMSMS (Liquid Chromatography with Tandem Mass Spectrometry Detection). 

Results for methamphetamine greater than 0.5μg/100sqcm exceed the current New Zealand guideline levels.

​

We can normally get the results to you within three working days.
