ISU Wins Grant to Halt Meth Making

October 8, 1999 By admin

Iowa State University research which could make it more difficult to make the illegal drug “meth” is in line for federal financing. A budget bill in Congress would provide a quarter-of-a-million dollars for the project, which is headed by I-S-U professor George Krause. Krause is trying to put something — an “inhibitor” — in anhydrous ammonia so it can’t be used to make meth — but could still be used as a farm fertilizer. Makers of the illegal drug often siphon anhydrous from farm fertilizer businesses to obtain the chemical which is crucial to making meth.
