The company has recently announced an upgrade to the platform’s legislative coverage, which has been expanded to include Argentina, Saudi Arabia, and Indonesia.

Users can enter any chemical into Controlled Substances Squared—even propriety or novel chemicals—and the platform’s advanced algorithms and datasets will highlight whether, where, and how the chemical is controlled.

Results include information from over 36 countries and international treaties, with the software’s datasets covering drug precursors, dual-use chemicals, controlled drugs, the Montreal ozone-depleting convention, the PIC Rotterdam Convention, the Chemical Weapons Convention, and many more.

The platform is now able to check if a chemical is included in Article 77 of Argentina’s Penal Code, as amended by the 1989 Drug Law, No. 23.737 and later amendments, including Annexes I and II of the Decreto 560/2019 – ESTUPEFACIENTES.

Recent updates to the software also cover Saudi Arabia’s Drugs and Narcotics Control Law (نظام مكافحة المخدرات والمؤثرات العقلية) and Indonesia’s Law No 35 of 2009 concerning Narcotics and subsequent amendments (UNDANG-UNDANG REPUBLIK INDONESIA NOMOR 35 TAHUN 2009 TENTANG NARKOTIKA).

Scitegrity continues to develop its Controlled Substances Squared platform, incorporating new legislation as it comes into force.
