they don't saturate the powder with nitro because that would defeat the object of stabilising it. experiment with flour and water. if u add a little it will soak it up, if you add alot it won't. i haven't actually tried this so i'm hoping i'm right!!!

I suppose it depends on how absorbant the stabilizer is and how much nitro is in there. It should probably be greasy to the touch, try rubbing some between your fingers, if you also get a headache then NG is present.
