Microdosing Research Chemicals

Research chemicals are synthetic or semi-synthetic substances studied within analytical, educational and scientific contexts for their molecular structure and chemical properties. They are not approved as food, food supplement or medicine, and are offered exclusively for research purposes.

Microdose.nl has been Europe's first microdosing webshop since 2018 and is the leading specialist in microdosing within the EU. The research chemicals in this category are available via Microdosing.shop and fall within two main categories: lysergamide analogues such as 1cP-LSD and 1V-LSD, and tryptamine analogues such as 4-HO-MET (Methylcybin).

Within scientific and analytical circles, certain research chemicals are studied in the context of microdosing research. Microdosing research focuses on the effects of very small quantities of psychoactive substances on cognitive and neurobiological processes. Research chemicals such as 1cP-LSD and 4-HO-MET are investigated in this field because of their molecular properties and structural relationship to known psychoactive compounds.

The substances referenced on this page are offered exclusively for analytical, educational and scientific research. They are not intended for human or animal consumption and are not offered as a means for personal use.

Within this category, various research chemicals are available for analytical and scientific research, including:

• 1cP-LSD drops Microdose
• Methylcybin (4-HO-MET) Microdose drops
• Pellets 1cP-LSD Micro Focus (20x10mcg)
• 1cP-LSD blotters Microdose (10x 20mcg)
• 1P-LSD blotters Microdose (10x 20mcg)
• 4x100mcg 1cP-LSD blotters
• 1V-LSD (Valerie) microdose pellets (20x10mcg)
• 4-HO-MET pellets (Methylcybin) (4x20mg)

1cP-LSD (1-cyclopropionyl-d-lysergic acid diethylamide) is a semi-synthetic research chemical from the class of lysergamide analogues, first documented in 2019. In scientific and pharmacological literature, 1cP-LSD is described as a structural analogue of lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD). This description is purely chemical in nature and does not imply any similarity in application or effect.

1cP-LSD is not listed among the prohibited substances under Dutch law and therefore falls into a different legal category than LSD. The substance is studied within research contexts for its molecular properties and chemical structure. Within the lysergamide group, 1P-LSD and 1V-LSD are also available via Microdosing.shop as research substances.

1cP-LSD is available in various presentation forms: liquid solution in a glass pipette bottle, blotters and pellets. For specific product information and availability, please refer to the product pages on Microdosing.shop.

4-HO-MET (4-hydroxy-N-methyl-N-ethyltryptamine), also known as Methylcybin or metocin, is a synthetic research chemical from the class of tryptamine analogues. The substance was first synthesised and documented by American chemist Alexander Shulgin in his scientific work TiHKAL (1997). 4-HO-MET is structurally related to psilocin, the active compound in psilocybin mushrooms.

In online search behaviour, 4-HO-MET is regularly searched under terms such as mushroom drops or psilocybin drops. This reflects search language only and does not constitute a chemical or substantive equivalence: 4-HO-MET is a fully synthetic research chemical and is not derived from mushrooms or truffles. The substance falls outside Dutch drug legislation and is offered exclusively for analytical and scientific research, not for human consumption.

4-HO-MET is available via Microdosing.shop as a liquid solution (Methylcybin drops) and as pellets. For product details, please refer to the 4-HO-MET product page on Microdosing.shop.

The legal status of research chemicals varies by country and is continuously evolving. In the Netherlands, 1cP-LSD, 1V-LSD and 4-HO-MET are currently not listed under the Opium Act. Microdosing.shop only offers substances that, to the best of our knowledge at the time of listing, are not explicitly included on national prohibited substances lists.

Research chemicals are not shipped to countries where import or possession is not permitted, including Germany, Austria, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Norway, Northern Ireland, Malta, the Canary Islands and Hungary. Shipping outside the European Union is not possible. It is the buyer's responsibility to verify local laws and regulations before placing an order.

Research chemicals are available in three presentation forms, each suitable for different research setups.

Drops

Liquid research chemicals are supplied as a solution in a glass pipette bottle. This presentation form allows precise measurement within research setups where a liquid reference is required.

Blotters

Blotters are small absorbent carriers onto which a precisely determined amount of research chemical has been applied. They are used in analytical and comparative research contexts.

Pellets

Pellets are solid research references containing a predetermined amount of active substance per unit. They are used where a fixed, reproducible presentation form is required within the research setup.

For those looking to explore the broader scientific and educational context around microdosing research, the Microdosing Institute offers comprehensive educational programmes and professional guidance. The Microdosing Institute was founded in 2017 and has trained more than 70 certified facilitators worldwide. Microdose.nl is an official partner of the Microdosing Institute.

What is 1cP-LSD and how does it differ chemically from LSD?

1cP-LSD is a semi-synthetic research chemical from the class of lysergamide analogues, first documented in 2019. Chemically, it is a structural analogue of LSD, meaning the molecular composition is comparable. LSD is prohibited under Dutch law; 1cP-LSD currently is not. The substance is offered exclusively for analytical and scientific research, not for human consumption.

What is the relationship between mushroom drops and 4-HO-MET?

The term mushroom drops is used in online search behaviour for liquid substances structurally related to psilocybin or psilocin. 4-HO-MET (Methylcybin) is a synthetic research chemical structurally related to psilocin, but is not an extract from mushrooms or truffles. The substance is offered exclusively as a research substance via Microdosing.shop, not as a consumer product.

Are research chemicals legal in the Netherlands?

The substances offered via Microdosing.shop, including 1cP-LSD, 1V-LSD and 4-HO-MET, are currently not listed under the Dutch Opium Act. The legal status of research chemicals can differ per country and changes regularly. Verifying applicable legislation in your country of destination is always the buyer's responsibility.

What is the difference between lysergamide analogues and tryptamine analogues?

Lysergamide analogues, such as 1cP-LSD and 1V-LSD, are structurally derived from lysergic acid and are described in scientific literature as chemical relatives of LSD. Tryptamine analogues, such as 4-HO-MET, are structurally derived from tryptamine and related to compounds such as psilocin. Both classes are studied in analytical and scientific research for their molecular properties.

Where can I order research chemicals?

Research chemicals are not sold on Microdose.nl due to the payment provider's policy. The full RC range, including 1cP-LSD, 4-HO-MET and 1V-LSD, is available via Microdosing.shop, the sister webshop of Microdose.nl with a payment provider that permits RC orders.
