Fraud, errors and gamesmanship in experimental toxicology: Extasy
What is this about?
The paper discusses several case studies briefly, as examples from the field of toxicology, and a few with some details. One is, the case of Ricuarte and his colleagues, who reported that Ecstasy given to primates at doses intended to replicate the doses used by people caused dopaminergic neurotoxicity, which is known to lead to Parkinson’s disease. When they tried to repeat their work they found that the original bottles had been mislabelled and that the primates had been given amphetamine.
