Download or read book Method Development and Validation for Drug Identification and Confirmation by LC MS MS for Limited specimen Cases written by Danielle E. Ross-Carr and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Driving under the influence of drugs (DUID) cases represent the largest portion of cases handled in most forensic toxicology laboratories. Blood is a commonly used specimen and is often analyzed using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS). A common extraction for this method requires two milliliters of blood. If more than one extraction is necessary, a larger volume of blood is required. Recently, laboratories have started using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC/MS) to obtain a lower limit of detection and extractions which require less blood to complete. Currently, the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation (OSBI) Laboratory operates LC-based extractions which require 250 to 500 microliters (μL) of sample to complete, but these are limited to specific drug classes. A general drug screen for forty drugs has been developed and validated using 250 microliters of blood. Even with this reduction of volume requirements, there are still instances in which less than one milliliter (mL) of blood is available for use by the analyst. An additional validation has been completed which required 100 microliters of sample to confirm the presence of thirty-nine drugs. A comparison between these methods was completed to verify the sensitivity of the 100 microliter method.

Download or read book Field deployable Gas Chromatography mass Spectrometry GC MS Analysis of Illicit Drugs written by Leah Rynearson and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: False positive results from on-scene illicit drug analysis using presumptive color tests have caused numerous wrongful arrests (Lieblein 2018). In many states, forensic laboratories do not ever receive the sample for confirmative identification unless the defendant goes to trial, which makes it impossible to know the severity of this problem. Additionally, some defendants take a plea deal, which can result in these defendants spending months or years in prison for a crime they did not commit. Improving the reliability of on-scene illicit drug testing by incorporating confirmatory methods capable of achieving very low limits of detection such as gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) into the field could help reduce these wrongful arrests. The purpose of this research was to build a spectral library of illicit drugs and additive spectra for a commercially available portable ion-trap GC-MS, the Torion T-9 from Perkin-Elmer. Due to the potential for space charge and ion-ion interactions in ion trap mass spectrometers, the resulting MS spectra produced can be different than standard quadrupole MS. Thus, a customized library for this type of field application is critical. Over fifty (50) illicit drugs and fifteen (15) additives were used to create a GC-MS library after repeated testing. This customized GC-MS library was then used to test the ability to detect and identify illicit substances and their additives in seized drug samples, provided by the Connecticut State Police K9 Unit, which had not undergone laboratory testing. In addition, results were compared with data generated from the same samples using a field-portable quadrupole GC-MS. Of the twelve (12) samples tested, a positive identification for a controlled substance was made for ten (10) of them, using spectral data in the customized GC-MS library. The other two (2) contained unknown peaks that were not identified by any available GC-MS or MS library. Future studies should work on refining the retention time for each drug, performing tests with different versions of the Torion T-9 to ensure robustness of the GC-MS library, and continuous addition of illicit drug and additive standards to further expand the GC-MS library.

Download or read book Gas Chromatography and Mass Spectrometry A Practical Guide written by O. David Sparkman and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2011-05-17 with total page 633 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second edition of Gas Chromatography and Mass Spectrometry: A Practical Guide follows the highly successful first edition by F.G. Kitson, B.S. Larsen, and C.N. McEwen (1996), which was designed as an indispensible resource for GC/MS practitioners regardless of whether they are a novice or well experienced. The Fundamentals section has been extensively reworked from the original edition to give more depth of an understanding of the techniques and science involved with GC/MS. Even with this expansion, the original brevity and simple didactic style has been retained. Information on chromatographic peak deconvolution has been added along with a more in-depth understanding of the use of mass spectral databases in the identification of unknowns. Since the last edition, a number of advances in GC inlet systems and sample introduction techniques have occurred, and they are included in the new edition. Other updates include a discussion on fast GC and options for combining GC detectors with mass spectrometry. The section regarding GC Conditions, Derivatization, and Mass Spectral Interpretation of Specific Compound Types has the same number of compound types as the original edition, but the information in each section has been expanded to not only explain some of the spectra but to also explain why certain fragmentations take place. The number of Appendices has been increased from 12 to 17. The Appendix on Atomic Masses and Isotope Abundances has been expanded to provide tools to aid in determination of elemental composition from isotope peak intensity ratios. An appendix with examples on "Steps to follow in the determination of elemental compositions based on isotope peak intensities" has been added. Appendices on whether to use GC/MS or LC/MS, third-party software for use in data analysis, list of information required in reporting GC/MS data, X+1 and X+2 peak relative intensities based on the number of atoms of carbon in an ion, and list of available EI mass spectral databases have been added. Others such as the ones on derivatization, isotope peak patterns for ions with Cl and/or Br, terms used in GC and in mass spectrometry, and tips on setting up, maintaining and troubleshooting a GC/MS system have all been expanded and updated. - Covers the practical instruction necessary for successful operation of GC/MS equipment - Reviews the latest advances in instrumentation, ionization methods, and quantitation - Includes troubleshooting techniques and a variety of additional information useful for the GC/MS practitioner - A true benchtop reference - A guide to a basic understanding of the components of a Gas Chromatograph-Mass Spectrometer (GC-MS) - Quick References to data interpretation - Ready source for information on new analyses
