A rapid and sensitive field screening test for lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD), which requires little manipulation and equipment, is described. The method is only a presumptive test, and the sample must be taken back to the laboratory for confirmatory tests. (The method is also applicable as a screening test for other psychotomimetic drugs such as dimethyltryptamine, diethyltryptamine, bufotenin, serotonin, and psilocybin.)
