Rapid Screening of Illicit Drugs from Biofluid via Dried Blood/Urine Spot and Ultrasonic Desorption-Assisted Low-Temperature Arc Plasma Ionization Mass Spectrometry.

Analytical Chemistry April 29, 2025 Zhongbao Han, Zhongyu Zhao, Meiyun Pan et al. 3 citations

A novel method for rapid and sensitive illicit drug screening in biofluids has been developed by employing a paper-based sample collection coupled with ultrasonic desorption-assisted low-temperature plasma ionization mass spectrometry (PBS-LTPI-MS). For optimization, key experimental parameters, such as geometry coordinates, angle, and plasma intensity, were fine-tuned using ketamine as the...

Photothermal Desorption and Reagent-Assisted Low-Temperature Plasma Ionization Miniature IT-MS/MS for On-Site Analysis of Illicit Drugs in Saliva and Urine.

Analytical Chemistry February 11, 2025 Yun Wu, Mei Li, Ruidong Liu et al. 6 citations

Globally, drug-impaired driving fatalities now exceed those from drunk driving, urging the need for on-site and roadside detection methods. In this study, a photothermal desorption and reagent-assisted low-temperature plasma ionization miniature ion trap mass spectrometer (PDRA-LTP-ITMS) was developed for on-site detection of drug-impaired driving. The pseudomultiple reaction monitoring (MRM)...

Setup of a Serotonin 2A Receptor (5-HT2AR) Bioassay: Demonstration of Its Applicability To Functionally Characterize Hallucinogenic New Psychoactive Substances and an Explanation Why 5-HT2AR Bioassays Are Not Suited for Universal Activity-Based Screening of Biofluids for New Psychoactive Substances

Analytical Chemistry November 14, 2019 Eline Pottie, Annelies Cannaert, Katleen van Uytfanghe et al. 29 citations

Classic or serotonergic hallucinogens comprise the third largest number of reported new psychoactive substances (NPS), according to the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime. While being structurally very divergent, they share activation of the serotonin 2A receptor (5-HT2AR), a G protein-coupled receptor, as their main pharmacological mechanism. Here, we report on the development of a...

Rapid Screening Method for New Psychoactive Substances of Forensic Interest: Electrochemistry and Analytical Determination of Phenethylamines Derivatives (NBOMe) via Cyclic and Differential Pulse Voltammetry.

Analytical Chemistry February 7, 2017 Ana Flávia B. Andrade, Samuel Kasahun Mamo, Jose Gonzalez-Rodriguez

The NBOMe derivatives are phenethylamines derived from the 2C class of hallucinogens. Only a few human pharmacologic studies have been conducted on these drugs, and several cases of intoxication and deaths have been reported. Presently, NBOMe are not a part of the routine drugs-of-abuse screening procedure for many police forces, and there are no rapid immunoassay screening tests that can...

On-Line Immunoaffinity Extraction-Coupled Column Capillary Liquid Chromatography/Tandem Mass Spectrometry: Trace Analysis of LSD Analogs and Metabolites in Human Urine

Analytical Chemistry 1996 Jianyi Cai, Jack D. Henion 112 citations

An on-line immunoaffinity extraction-coupled column capillary liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (IAE/LC/LC/MS/MS) method is described. The system involves three columns, a 2.1-mm-i.d. protein G immunoaffinity column with noncovalently immobilized antibody specific to the analytes of interest, a packed capillary trapping column, and a packed capillary analytical column. With use of...

Determination of lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD), iso-LSD, and N-demethyl-LSD in body fluids by gas chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry

Analytical Chemistry July 15, 1992 Chad C. Nelson, Rodger L. Foltz 64 citations

Procedures for detection and quantitation of lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD), iso-LSD, and N-demethyl-LSD by capillary chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (GC/MS/MS) are presented. Several methods for derivatization, sample introduction, and ionization, in combination with mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (MS/MS), have been evaluated for overall ionization efficiency and product-ion...
