MDMA and MDA cross reactivity observed with Abbott TDx amphetamine/methamphetamine reagents.

Clinical Chemistry May 1, 1988 José Manuel Ramos, R.l. Fitzgerald, Alphonse Poklis 10 citations

The Abbott TDx amphetamine/methamphetamine reagents show cross-reactivity with MDMA and MDA, meaning these drugs can produce false-positive results when testing for amphetamines. This finding has implications for forensic toxicology and clinical drug testing, as it may lead to misidentification of substances.
