Notes:

Min.= minimum purity recorded; Max. = maximum purity recorded; Mean = mean purity recorded; Median = middle purity value in the ranked data set; Mode = most frequent (typical) purity recorded.

The minimum ‘zero’ values represent a value greater than zero but lower than the minimum sensitivity threshold that allows a robust estimate.

(1) Data reported for cocaine purity at wholesale level: sample size=4; minimum=71.2; maximum=79.9; mean=74.7; median=73.84 & mode=n.a.

(2) Data reported as means is actually a weighted mean.

(3) Data refer to England and Wales only.
