Science serum regular and tainted results.

I was playing around with the Science Career serums and was wondering what all the effects were, after a lot of Googling and not finding any info on the tainted effects I decided to test them out myself.
These were all tested on a sim with no skills, in a fine mood and full needs for each one. Free will was turned off.
The results are listed below, green is for the normal serum and red is the tainted serum. Have you discovered different results? Let us all know!

  • > @kalaksed said:
    > that 'best way to recover' one you got for alien aura i've gotten for snake oil in one household, and it seems to always be the result from non-tainted snake oil this sim makes

    I ended up here because that's what is happening to my sim too, so I was looking for info. Everyone in the household is sick at the moment. I haven't tested it on a different sim yet.

  • Thanks all :)

    @kalaksed was that result on a sim with or without a illness?

    @Hermitgirl I cant wait to see your results!
  • @kalaksed so they got the nap only on the regular Snake Oil? not the tainted? and was the illness removed too or did they just nap?
    Sorry for all the questions, I just need to know so I can add it to the right one :)
