General Applications
Osmolality can be used as an effective
and reliable drug-screening tool. Law enforcement officials can use osmometers
in forensics laboratories and at crime scenes as part of the investigative
process. For instance, teenagers who go to rave clubs sometimes bring
their drugs in liquid form (often carried in a water bottle). An osmometer
can determine if the fluid in the bottle is water or if narcotics are
present. The osmometer is more than a lab or hospital instrument and can
be used in many environments.
