Did the deep water preserve the morphine?
I never thought of this as a kid. Now I'm almost 50, and I'm curious...I mean, I am certain different formulations of chemicals lose or gain their potency.
Look how many times old nitroglycerine is discovered and used as a plot device to great effect.
But morphine ampules? Over thirty years? Is the kingpin planning on doing a fake deal, or is there something I don't know (I'm sure there is) about IV morphine in glass...did the cold and water pressure preserve it? Wouldn't it start to lose its potency the moment it hit the surface in rapid changes of temperature and so on and etc.?
I don't know why I never thought of this but now I am googling it...I'm curious!
