Swim would like to know if anyone has tried to extract salvinorum a with an aqueous/non polar layer technique. The technique in mind is as follows:

1. In a large glass jar (with lid), combine water and powdered salvia leaf, mix thoroughly by shaking the jar with lid on.

2. Add solvent of choice (acetone) until a layer is formed on top of the water.

3. Shake the jar for several minutes to thoroughly mix in solvent to aqueous layer.

4. Allow time for seperation and any emulsions to clear.

5. Seperate top layer from jar and

6. A- Apply to salvia leaf at ratio, evap, to make enhanced leaf

6. B- fan evap, collect salvinorum A


Would this process work? I know swim was vague at the details but a basic overview was what swim was going for.
 
I can't tell you if that would work or not, but I can tell you an easy way that I think would work pretty well for small amounts. Just back load a syringe with highly concentrated extract. Fill the syringe with 90 percent isopropyl alcohol. Squirt out the solution after leaving it for a few minutes. Evaporate and scrap up mostly pure salvinorin A (purity will depend on how concentrated your extract is).

I had plans to do this years ago so I could do an IM injection of salvinorin A after dissolving it in 70 percent DMSO and running it through a micron filter. I tried injecting 1 mg of pure salvinorin A once and what little effects there were could have been placebo. I'm not certain it dissolved totally in my DMSO solution because I remember seeing shards of it stuck to the end of the needle (it's hard to tell with such small amounts). It's supposed to be soluble in DMSO above 50 percent, I had thought.

If anyone knows a solvent for salvinorin A that can be injected please post. I still have a couple of milligrams of pure that I've been sitting on for years because I don't want to waste them on something I'm not sure will work. I'm very interested in slowing down the onset of the visions because I think having more time to process the breakdown of identity instead of just its reassemblage could make for some powerful insights. I think tincture is too slow acting to get me to where I want to be, and smoking is too fast.
