/ SENSITIVITY MATTERS
Detect what matters most with both Bulk and Trace
Fentanyl + xylazine real sample example
Bulk scan: caffeine
Trace scan: hidden active agents
Bulk Scan shows the dominant substance right away, a solid starting point, though not always the whole story on its own.
Trace Scan picks up what's mixed in at lower levels (under 5%), the kind of detail that can change the risk profile of a sample.
