Heroin in the Netherlands
Abstract
All heroin samples seized in the Netherlands in 1975 and weighing more than 10 grams together with all heroin samples seized during September 1976 were analysed by thin-layer chromatography, gas-liquid chromatography and liquid-solid chromatography. Most samples consisted of the so-called Hong Kong No. 3 type. Also the samples found in addicts were as potent as those seized from dealers and traffickers. We attempted to classify the samples into groups or batches, but only in a few cases could we conclude that two or more samples originated from the same batch.
