While the drug does not have many long term effects, if it is not used in moderation, it can be very dangerous and may even result in death.
The Bromo Dragonfly is a powerful hallucinogen, used as a recreational drug. Many people do this drug due to its ability to alter one’s mood. For example, the drug is an uplifting hallucinogen that people use to take themselves to “another/alternative world”. This particular drug was initially produced by Matthew Parker in David E. Nichol’s laboratory in 1998. The Bromo Dragonfly was given its name after its structural similarities to a dragonfly.

All of the chemicals and solutions conducted in the experiment were either from Pierce/Thermo Fisher Scientific or purchased from Sigma-Aldrich. Many of the concentrations were diluted in water or heated to a certain temperature to see how bed bugs would react to these different solutions. Scientists conducted two experiments to see how bed bugs reacted to different concentrations. The first experiment bed bugs were treated with adenosine nucleotides such as ATP, ADP, and AMP. After collecting data, the results show that there was little to no difference between bugs engorging on blood and ATP.

A vital "knowledge gap" is addressed in this experiment, that is to study the effect of stimulants and depressants, such as ethanol, melatonin, epinephrine, and dopamine on HR, individually and in a mixture. Said depressant and stimulant chemicals were administered to daphnia individually and afterwards, in combinations. The motivation for research in this area was to explore whether two select depressants or stimulants when administered together have a synergistic, antagonistic or no effect on HR. Data was determined in the form of Beats Per Minute (BPM). The data was analyzed by plotting the calculated BPM for each test solution from each daphnia.
