The issue focused on changes to technology that allowed researchers to study chemical reactions at high temperatures. Scientists also tried to answer why scientists think biological substances like cocaine are likely more volatile than what has been previously reported.

In this research, Nature Scientific Reports scientist Adam Lee and his colleagues looked at scientific literature from 2011 through 2014 and wrote in Science that studies had shown "that experiments show [the substance] can last up to 20 hours at room temperature (35°C). As with most laboratory chemicals, however, chemistry
