Abstract
A method for determining opiate agonists (morphine, morphine-3-glucuronide, morphine-6-glucuronide, 6-monoacetylmorphine, codeine, codeine-6-glucuronide, dihydrocodeine, dihydromorphine, buprenorphine, methadone, tramadol, and ibogaine), cocaine and its metabolites (benzoylecgonine and ecgonine methyl ester) and lysergic acid diethylamide in serum, blood, urine and other biological matrices is presented. Aliquots (0.5-1.5 mL) of biological fluids were spiked with appropriate deuterated internal standards and extracted using a common solid-phase extraction method (C18 cartridges). The extracts were subjected to liquid chromatographic-atmospheric-pressure chemical-ionization mass spectrometric examination using selected ion monitoring procedures. These procedures were developed after analysis of full-scan mass spectra of examined compounds. The extraction method appeared very universal; the recoveries were high for almost all drugs and the extracts were very clean. The procedure was applied for routine forensic casework.
