Poop smell, purification by recrystallization

[Degoba]

Hi everybody,

Normally DMT smells like weird burnt plastic, but imagine you have to deal with a batch that smells like poop(old people poop smell basically). Is it a sign for cantamination or just the weird indole smell(skatole)?
Would it be toxic to inhale something like this?

In that case, could the DMT be purified by recrystallization with lets say isopropanol?

Thanks in advance for any help.

I have nothing to add other than all of my DMT's I've pulled always smells like, I guess the best way to describe it is... candy flowers. Or jungle smarties.

If you go through your extraction steps, we may be able to help more.

Thanks for the comment. First things first, to be frankly the batch isnt synthesized by the user.

It still seems to have a plastic like smell, its just that the fecal smell is pungent. Perhaps its some other indole alkaloids which were extracted with the DMT.
Personally, the user is just worried that it could have harmful effects when inhaling.

Rest seems to look fine, crystals with majorily white colour and a sloght yellow touch.

That is already reason enough to test it. If something is off, like the smell in this case, even more of a reason to do so. Reagent tests are affordable and can be used many times. That would be my advice.

Yes you are absolutely right. I wanted to avoid it, since I wouldnt need the reagants for anything else, but better safe than sorry.
