The results of a new study conducted in Spain revealed that the air being breathed in the Spanish cities of Madrid and Barcelona contains traces of cocaine, and in smaller proportions, traces of amphetamines, opiates, and LSD.
The study, which will be published in the journal “Analytical Chemistry,” made use of micro-fiber filters that retain air particles for later analysis. Because the filters are located in high drug-use areas of Madrid and Barcelona, the scientists involved stated that the results found in their sample should be generalized to all of the air in these Spanish cities.
The findings of the study are not a cause of alarm, as they do not represent any danger to human health. It was said that the amount of cocaine found in Spanish air is so small it would take over a thousand years of living to breathe a single dose of cocaine.
