Background/Objectives: MDMA and MDA are among the stimulant drugs most frequently encountered in forensic casework, and oral fluid represents a practical biological matrix for their detection. However, liquid oral fluid requires refrigeration, is susceptible to degradation, and can be logistically demanding for routine laboratories. Dried Oral Fluid Spots (DOFS) offer a low-cost and stable...
Abstract The need for agile and proper identification of drugs of abuse has encouraged the scientific community to improve and to develop new methodologies. The drug lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) is still widely used due to its hallucinogenic effects. The use of voltammetric methods to analyze narcotics has increased in recent years, and the possibility of miniaturizing the electrochemical...
The application of electrochemical analysis within the forensic scenario has been widely explored, mainly in the context of the analysis of illicit drugs. In this regard, voltammetric measurements are particularly sensitive and specific. Psychedelic LSD (lysergic acid diethylamide) appears in seized blotters, and its apprehension is constant on a global scale. In this study, we have developed a...
