Synthetic Cannabinoid NPS
Brochures
Stay current on emerging synthetic cannabinoid NPS with Cayman’s reference standards. Cayman works closely with the forensic community to identify illicit synthetic cannabinoids and produce reference standards for the early detection of NPS. Cayman offers additional tools for the identification of unknown compounds, including GC-MS unknown analysis assistance, mass spectrometry resources like the Cayman Spectral Library and GC-MS Drug Identification Tool, as well as our lab wall poster guides

Traceable Opioid Material® Kits (TOM Kits®)
Brochures
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has developed Traceable Opioid Material® Kits (TOM Kits®) to support laboratory detection of current and emerging opioids as well as common co-drugs found in fentanyl-containing samples. The CDC has contracted Cayman, an ISO-accredited reference material producer, to manufacture and distribute TOM Kits®.

Brochures
Psychoactive substances have profound effects on complex neural processes. They alter thoughts, mood, perception, and behavior, effects that underlie recreational drug use and substance use disorders. However, some psychoactive substances are emerging as promising therapies. Cayman offers a range of products to study the underlying neural processes mediating behavior in response to psychoactive substances.
Opioid Analytical Standards
Brochures
Cayman Chemical is dedicated to working with the forensic community to quickly make authentic reference standards available from our ISO/IEC 17025 and ISO 17034 laboratories. In response to the opioid epidemic, our catalog has expanded to now contain more than 730 opioid standards to help identify, confirm, and quantify these drugs of abuse. This includes a wide collection of fentanyls and other emerging synthetic opioids as well as plant-derived opiates and their metabolites and internal standards.

Brochures
Hydrogenation of tetrahydrocannabinols (Δ8- or Δ9-THC) leads to formation of a mixture of hexahydrocannabinols (HHCs) comprised of the 9(S)- and 9(R)-HHC diastereomers. These compounds retain some psychoactivity but avoid classification as THCs as well as any THC-related regulations. Separation of the HHC diastereomers is possible by chromatography (HPLC, GC), but identity can only be confirmed with verified reference standards. Cayman offers fully characterized reference standards to aid in the correct identification and differentiation of hydrogenated phytocannabinoids.

Brochures
The identification of traditional and emerging drugs of abuse is fundamental in forensic and clinical toxicological casework. Cayman provides a wide range of analytical standards for illicit substances and misused medications. We now offer nine comprehensive Analytical Standards Panels that provide coverage of 1,274 traditional and emerging drugs of abuse.

Brochures
We understand that identifying mold and mycotoxins, such as aflatoxins and ochratoxin A, that can naturally contaminate hemp and Cannabis during its cultivation, transportation, storage, and even processing, is crucial to the assurance of your quality and safety testing. Linked to kidney and liver damage, reproductive disorders, and immune suppression as well as some being identified as potent carcinogens, mycotoxins are a known risk within the food safety industry. Cayman’s Mycotoxin Mixture CRM and single-component standards have been designed with consumer safety in mind to help you carry out mycotoxin analysis as part of your essential testing program.

Phytocannabinoid CRM Mixtures
Brochures
Traceable reference materials are essential for measurement accuracy in Cannabis product quality testing and profiling. Cayman provides a collection of pre-made, multi-component phytocannabinoid mixtures as well as fast turnaround of custom mixtures from our ISO 17034 labs to support quantitation workflows.
Features:
- Reduce time, consumable cost, and reproducibility errors associated with preparing standard curves from individual standards
- Provides ISO 17034 traceability of measurement results
- Intended for direct snap-and-inject analysis in HPLC-UV or LC- or GC-MS applications
Stimulant Analytical Standards
Brochures
Stimulants belong to a diverse group of psychoactive drugs whose function exerts a constant contribution to hyperactivity and impulse control. Illegal stimulant derivatives including amphetamines, arylcyclohexylamines, cathinones, cocaine/tropanes, phenethylamines, and piperazines are among the most widely abused across the US and Europe. However, the popularity of each substance, particularly in party culture settings, is frequently changing. Cayman offers more than 850 analytical standards for the identification of stimulants and is dedicated to working with the forensic community to quickly make reference standards available for new psychoactive substances (NPS).

Brochures
As the Cannabis industry grows, various stakeholders are working towards standardization within the industry. To identify and quantitatively measure the components found in a Cannabis product, Cayman offers analytical reference standards and ISO 17034-produced Certified Reference Materials. Along with single-component standards for potency testing, terpene profiling, and analysis of contaminants, we specialize in the production of pre-made, multi-component mixtures that are designed to improve quantitation accuracy and streamline workflows.

Brochures
Many analgesics clinically prescribed to manage chronic pain carry warranted concerns over safety and abuse liability. Further complications can arise from drug-drug interactions when stimulants or other illicit compounds are also abused. Cayman Chemical offers Certified Reference Materials (CRMs) to help identify, confirm, and quantify many of the major opioids, benzodiazepines, psychoactive drugs, and other controlled substances. Our CRMs meet ISO/IEC 17025 and ISO 17034 standards and are sold as quantitative solutions in sealed ampules.
Download Copy (PDF)Drug Metabolite CRMs
Brochures
Drug metabolites play a major role in identifying, confirming, and quantifying drugs of abuse. They are often the only remaining evidence of a rapidly metabolized drug, and their predictive fragmentation patterns provide much-needed clues for identifying unknowns. Cayman Chemical offers Certified Reference Materials (CRMs) for many of the major metabolites of opioids, benzodiazepines, stimulants, cannabinoids, and more. Our CRMs meet ISO/IEC 17025 and ISO 17034 standards and are sold as quantitative solutions in sealed ampules.
Download Copy (PDF)Phytocannabinoid Analytical Standards
Brochures
Almost 150 structurally and physiologically distinct cannabinoid compounds are unique to Cannabis, known collectively as phytocannabinoids. Cayman provides authentic reference standards for more than 120 unique phytocannabinoids for identification, detection, and quantification. Cayman also offers a suite of ISO 17034-produced multi-component CRM mixtures designed and engineered to the highest industry standards to streamline the quantitation of multiple phytocannabinoids.
