With access to a chemistry lab, you have the ability to make medicines, foam, toxins, explosions, smoke, and anything else, the likes of which are only inhibited by your imagination (and the game engine). Take caution in the lab, however, as uncontrolled reactions and not knowing what you're making can be very quickly hazardous to your health. Experiment at your own risk!

This guide will primarily be useful for Pharmacists, but is required reading for any Physician or Medical Technician as well, and may come in handy to any player – especially Traitors.

Chemical Forms

Chemicals can appear in various forms in-game: Liquid, pill, smoke, foam, or powdered.

Liquid

Liquid is the main state of chemicals that any Pharmacist will be working with. This is the form of chemicals, reagents, drinks, etc., in beakers, bottles, cups, or other liquid containers.

Chemicals can be dispensed from a Chemistry Dispenser in liquid form, or converted from pill form to liquid form using a Reagent Grinder or by dropping a pill into a container with a liquid in it.

Chemicals and medicines in liquid form can be consumed or administered in the following ways:

• By drinking directly from the container. This transfers the reagents to the mob's stomach instead of their blood.
• By splashing the container on a mob using HARM intent.
• By injecting the chemical into a mob with a syringe.
• By using an eye-dropper with the reagent on a mob's eyes.
• By using an eye-dropper with the reagent on an open incision during surgery. This allows transferring the reagent directly to an organ.
• By using an auto-injector, which can be pre-filled with any chemical and allows for faster injection than a syringe.

Pill

Pills are pre-measured chemicals in a solid form, which can be swallowed by any mob with a mouth or force-fed by another mob. Pills are commonly found in the game world in pill bottles and emergency treatment kits.

Pills can be created using the ChemMaster 3000 by inserting a beaker with the desired chemicals, transferring them to the buffer, and selecting one of the 'create pill' options.

Pills can be consumed or administered by clicking on yourself or another mob with the pill in your active hand. Note that the target must have a mouth and cannot be wearing a mask or helmet that covers the mouth. Unlike injections, pills deposit chemicals into the mob's stomach instead of the bloodstream.

Powdered

Powdered chemicals are a solid form of chemical that can be snorted.

Powdered chemicals can be made using an ID card or a sharp object or tool on a pill, such as a knife.

Powdered chemicals can be inhaled by clicking on them using a straw or physical money. This transfers the chemical directly to your bloodstream. Pills can also be put into food, beakers, or other containers.

Smoke

Smoke results from a chemical reaction and carries any other chemicals present in the container during the reaction. Any mobs within this smoke that are not breathing through internals or do not have a gas mask inhale these chemicals and are transferred to the mob's bloodstream. Additionally, any mobs or objects caught within the smoke are subject to any effects the chemical may have when touched or under physical contact, i.e., acid. This is commonly used for custom chemical smoke grenades and is the mechanism which tear gas grenades use. Chemicals ingested this way have a lower bioavailability compared to other methods (i.e. injections), so less of the chemical will actually enter the bloodstream.

Foam

Foam results from a chemical reaction and carries any other chemicals present in the container during the reaction. Any mobs or objects caught within the foam are subject to any effects the chemical may have when touched or under physical contact, i.e., acid. This is commonly used for custom chemical foam grenades.

Metabolism

Any administered medication must reach the blood and then get metabolized for them to work. Most drugs only exert an effect in the process of being metabolized out of the blood. Once metabolized, their inert breakdown products serve no purpose other than forensic evidence. However, a minority of drugs work differently, where they are initially inactive while in the blood and only exert their effects by accumulating metabolites. These drugs have proportionally increasing effects as metabolite levels increases, as opposed to other drugs. For purposes of this section, drugs that work like this will be called active metabolites.

While all drugs eventually convert into metabolites; only active metabolites show up on the health analyzer. Using mass spectrometry on a blood sample will give you a list of all metabolites in the sample, active or inert.

Metabolites

Файл:Metabolites.png

Overview of the metabolism system.

Metabolites are the breakdown products from reagents metabolized in the bloodstream. Metabolites of a reagent keep building up as long as there is some of it being metabolized in the blood stream. When the bloodstream runs out of drug; metabolites start breaking down at a rapid rate. There are two types of metabolites; active metabolites and inert metabolites.

• Active metabolites are the breakdown products of a drug that start exerting their effect once broken down. Their levels are directly proportional to their effect, and count towards the OD threshold. Examples include (but are not limited to) alcohol and opiates. Active metabolite levels can be detected on a health analyzer. These start breaking down once there is no source of new drug in the bloodstream. This means ensuring intervals of time between dosages is very important for these drugs, to give the body time to wash it out. It is easy to cause an OD with these drugs if not careful.
• Inert metabolites do not have any effect; and are simply the byproduct of drug breakdown from the bloodstream. They do not show up on the health analyzer; but still show up in the autopsy scanner. They do not contribute to the OD threshold; instead the level of the drug in the blood determines whether OD is triggered Intervals of time between dosages is less important for these drugs, as long as the levels in the blood don't exceed OD. Given the bioavailability mechanic (see later), this means administering large doses of these drugs IV is effectively the only way to cause an OD.

Bioavailability

Not all methods of drug delivery are born equal. The most efficient way to deliver drugs into a body is through intravenous (IV) injection. Any injected drug will be delivered into the blood 100% with no loss or inefficiency. This means the drug has a bioavailability of 100%.

Drugs can also be given orally. This method of absorption are much less efficient, and with few exceptions, that means that a percentage less than 100% will end up in the blood. Most drugs have an oral bioavailability of 60%. That means a 10u of a drug delivered by pill would only end up delivering 6u to the blood. The remaining 4u are not absorbed and exert no effect (unless the drug is designed to act on the stomach). This is useful to design large pills that are absorbed slowly to give a long-acting drug effect. Another advantage is a very low chance of an overdose, since drugs would enter the bloodstream at a lower rate than they exit the bloodstream.

Example: Assume Drug A, which has inactive metabolites, a bioavailability of 60%, and an OD of 30. If you administer 60u intravenously; you will instantly trigger an overdose until the levels in the bloodstream break down to below 30. However, if you administer a pill of 60u you will only get about 40u into the bloodstream over a period of time. As the drug will be metabolized out of the blood faster than it can be absorbed, risk of OD is very low to zero.

However, this safety and benefit does not apply to drugs with active metabolites as discussed before; since metabolites will not degrade until all sources of new drug are exhausted.

In addition, some species with permeable skin like Skrell can absorb drugs via their skin. However this is very inefficient, absorbing usually around 10% of whatever drug is applied to the skin.

Overdoses

Overdose in most cases is a bad time for the patient. By default, it will cause periodic toxin damage, which can damage the liver. If untreated, the damage will spread to other organs. For most drugs; blood levels contributes to the OD threshold. For drugs that are inactive until they are converted into active metabolites, it is active metabolites that contribute to the OD threshold.

The following examples will illustrate the point. For the first examples; assume our drug has an overdose threshold of 30 and has inactive metabolites:

• 30u of the drug injected into the blood will trigger an overdose. However, as soon as the drug starts being metabolized and drops from 30; the overdose is no longer triggered.
• 15u of the drug injected into the blood with 25u already existing as an active metabolite will not trigger an overdose; as the metabolites are inactive.
• 20u of the drug injected into the blood and 20u fed as a pill will not trigger an overdose. This is because the 20u as a pill do not count until they are absorbed in the blood. Given the pill needs time to be absorbed; and is not absorbed fully, the drug levels in the blood will never exceed 30

Now the following examples are for drugs with active metabolites:

• 30u of the drug injected into the bloodstream will not trigger an overdose initially, as the drug needs to be metabolized into its active metabolite to exert an effect. However, once all the drug is metabolized it will trigger an overdose. Assuming no new source of drug, the metabolite levels will then fall naturally below the OD threshold with time.
• 15u of the drug injected into the blood with 25u already existing in metabolites will trigger an overdose; as the metabolites are active. As discussed earlier, active metabolites do not degrade as long as a new source of drug is being delivered. 15u + 25u would be 40u which is above the threshold.
• 20u of the drug injected into the blood and 20u fed as a pill will not trigger an overdose immediately; but the patient is at risk of a short episode of an overdose. Assuming 60% of the oral pill is absorbed (roughly 12u, based on bioavailability); this means 32u of drug will be metabolized by the bloodstream. As metabolite levels do not degrade until all new sources of drug are consumed, this means there will eventually be 32u of active metabolites accumulated.

All this means that the dosages of drugs with active metabolites must be very careful. Health analyzers will show you how many active metabolites (and unmetabolized drugs in the bloodstream) to be able to plan for this.

Common Active Metabolites

Some drugs can break down into the same active metabolite. This means that different drugs end up contributing to the same OD threshold and serve the same therapeutic purpose. The main difference between these drugs ends up being how quickly they metabolize and how powerful they are. An example is opioids; which is the common active metabolite of both tramadol and oxycodone. The main difference between these two medications is that oxycodone is significantly more powerful than tramadol and converts to 5u of opioids for every 1u of oxycodone metabolized. In contrast, 1u of tramadol converts to only 2u of opioids. Given opioids is the active metabolite; only its level contributes to the OD threshold.

List of Drugs with Active Metabolites

• All Alcohols; which all convert into 'ethanol' their active metabolite. Different alcohols have different strengths; like the opioid example above. This means drinking different types of alcohol all contributes to the same alcohol level in the body.
• Tramadol/Oxycodone; which both convert into an active 'opiate'.
• Citalopram/Paroxetine; which both convert into an active 'antidepressant'.
• Metyhlphenidate
• Nicotine

Metabolism Rate

Different chemicals have different metabolism rates, which is how fast a reagent is removed from inside a person.

The server will make a best effort to "tick" or process every creature once every two seconds.

If you were to inject 15 units of Inaprovaline into a patient, with a metabolism rate of 0.1/t (per tick), or ~0.05/second, the patient's Inaprovaline would have completely metabolized in five minutes.

Note that a patient's metabolism rate can be affected by stasis.

Managing the Lab

Being a Pharmacist mostly consists of sitting in your laboratory and moving beakers back and forth between the Chemical Dispenser and the ChemMaster 3000. When a beaker is in the Chemical Dispenser, you can put chemicals into it, and any reactions will take place automatically within the beaker. Once you have some medicine mixed up, move the beaker to the ChemMaster 3000 and create some bottles or pills, then put those in the Refrigerated Medicine Storage. This will allow the Physicians, Medical Technicians, and other Medical personnel to access them easily.

The primary base chemicals a Pharmacist uses are Acetone and Carbon. At the start of the round, it's advisable you order extra reagent cartridges through Supply to make sure you don't run out at an inopportune time.

Most medication in the game is built out from a handful of more basic formulas. Inaprovaline and Dylovene form the bases for many more complex medications. Both of these are pre-made and available throughout the infirmary, in bottled and pill form. As most Medical Technicians keep bottles of Inaprovaline and Dylovene on hand for emergencies, it is advised you use the pill bottles that can be found in the pill cabinets and medical storage; make sure the Physician or Chief Medical Officer is okay with you doing so.

Equipment

The following machinery is available in order for you to mix your chemicals. In addition, your lab contains a variety of beakers, syringes, pills, and pill bottles at your disposal.

Equipment	Icon	Description
Chemical Dispenser	Файл:Chemistry chemmaster 3000.png	This is one of your two primary tools when performing pharmaceutical work. To operate it, load it with a container and choose the chemical and amount of chemical you want to dispense. You'll use this for much of your mixing work, so look up recipes below and go to town. The Chemical Dispenser has limited amounts of its various chemicals available (500u). In order to replace the empty cartridge, use a  screwdriver on the dispenser and remove the empty cartridge, then use the new cartridge on the dispenser itself. You can refill and rename the empty cartridges, allowing you to add commonly used non-basic chemicals to enable faster mixing of more complex chemicals. Click on the cartridge while it's in your hand to remove the cap and fill it, as with any other liquid container. Right-click and set label to change the name, then reinsert into the Chemical Dispenser. The chemicals that can be found in your dispenser are listed in the Base Chemicals section below.
ChemMaster 3000	Файл:Chemistry dispenser.png	The other of your primary tools for creating medication. The ChemMaster 3000, like the Chemical Dispenser, can have beakers or bottles loaded into it. Rather than adding things to the beaker, though, the ChemMaster 3000 removes them, and places them into new bottles or pills for easy injection or consumption. This is how you take the medicines you've mixed up and put them into bottles for your Physicians to use.
All-In-One Grinder	Файл:Chemistry reagent grinder.png	The grinder takes whatever you can load into it and breaks it down into a liquid chemical form. You can use it to grind Phoron crystals into liquid, as you need it for several medications, but you can also use it to grind various pills into liquid form for easy mixing and bottling. It also serves as a handy "oops" button in case you create pills with the wrong dosage and need to start over.
Refrigerated Medicine Storage	Файл:Chemistry fridge.png	This is where the medications you've bottled up, or the pill bottles you've filled, are stored. It's accessible from the Infirmary storage room, and is where most of your interaction with the rest of Medical staff will take place – they arrive here, dispense the medications they want, and are on their merry way, while you yell at them for draining your precious stores just to keep a handful of schmucks from killing themselves.

Base Chemicals

The following chemicals serve as the building blocks for all other chemical recipes (barring a few exotic ingredients). They can all be found in your Chemical Dispenser, except for Phoron and Uranium, which must be obtained by grinding mineral sheets – several sheets of Phoron are available in your laboratory. Effects of these base chemicals (if any) are included below.

Formulas

These are the vast majority of chemical mixtures available in-game. There may or may not be others if you can get your hands on more exotic ingredients, like slime cores, but their effects can be wild and dangerous if you aren't careful. Experiment at your own risk!

Note: When a reagent in a recipe is labeled "(catalyst)", that means it will not be consumed in the reaction.

Medicine

The vast majority of chemicals you will be called on to make. Typically, a small amount of each should be kept on hand. Assuming the medical team is not incompetent, they should be able to keep everyone alive and quite healthy with your assistance.
