Notes: Min. = minimum purity recorded; Max. = maximum purity recorded; Ave. = average purity recorded. Data were not available in 2004 for the unlisted EU Member States and Romania (1) A proportion of the seizures (exact number unknown) were made at Brussels National Airport. Drugs seized at the airport generally are not cut yet and thus have a high percentage of pure substance. This affects the numbers for the maximum and the average percentage. (2) Data reported as averages are actually median values. (3) The value reported as average is actually the median. (4) The purity reported as average refers to quantities sold by gram. However, the purity of doses sold at the end-user would be lower (brown heroin: dose of 100 milligrams approx. and purity average of 22.5 %). (5) The value reported as average is actually the weighted mean. (6) Data refer to England and Wales only. Reitox national focal points, see Table PPP-6 part (ii).
