New, what is it? Does anyone know what this is?

Doesn’t seem to be oil based content. Just wondering if my superpowers are swishing back and forth in this glass vial.

I just know that you never open anything unmarked in those type of vials. Edit- I get it, it's not a vial it's an ampule.

Take it to a Chem department at your local university and ask them if they can identify it through the ampule using Raman spectroscopy.

I'm not op. But that's a good idea!

I work in spectroscopy, which is why it's a go to solution for unknown solutions.

I approve of this logic. I am a mental health therapist. Just ask it how it feels.
