The red could have been blood? We don't allow speculative threads like this, I'm sorry about what happened to you but this is not OD material.
And whatever you do, don't just do step 1 and skip straight to shooting it. :D
Well im glad this wasn't closed yet because i attempted this whole purifying deal and i got to the step where the layers are supposed to separate but this failed to happen and now I'm left with one clear solution in a sealed bag, i don't know why but it failed to separate. The redness is completely gone but the ph is measuring way high, i have the paper strips where green means no ph and red is high, and it is a solid red. Did i add too much chloroform? Also is there anything i can do with this solution or did i just waste another half gram?
Here you go but, as I said if you aren't familiar with chemistry don't try it.
1.Dissolve the street heroin in water.
2.Use Hydrion pH papers to monitor the pH during this procedure. Add Sodium Hydroxide in solution dropwise while checking the pH. Use a narrow glass or plastic rod to touch a minimum of the drug solution to the paper to avoid loss. Stop when the pH reaches about 9.
3.Extract with chloroform. Chloroform is far superior to diethyl ether in that it is non-flammable and does not present storage problems, where explosive peroxides can be formed. Note: Chloroform is an ideal solvent for heroin, codeine, and most other opiates, with the major exception of morphine which requires a mixed solvent.
4.Separate the chloroform layer and wash with a minimum quantity of cold water: 1-2 ml works well. Evaporate the chloroform taking care not to burn the residue on the bottom of the beaker. Note: Chloroform is a known carcinogen, so plenty of ventilation (and a respirator) would be advisable. The chloroform is so volatile that this step is actually quite easy to perform.
5.Add a dilute solution of HCl dropwise while stirring with a glass rod. Monitor the pH closely. As the acid is being added, the diacetyl morphine base is being neutralized and converted into the water-soluble hydrochloride salt form.
6.When all the solid material has just dissolved, stop adding the HCl. I found that this takes place around pH 5-6. Note: If one tries to bring the pH all of the way up to 7, the free base alkaloid precipitates back out requiring addition of more HCl.
7.The resulting solution will be in an injectable form; it will now be completely clear with no colored impurities or particulate matter
