A 16-day-old female newborn was admitted to the emergency department after cardiopulmonary arrest. Total-body radiographs and non-enhanced CT of the brain showed fracture of the right clavicle, pericerebral hemorrhage and brain damage with reversal sign. The infant died on the day of her hospital admission. Because child abuse was suspected, a medicolegal autopsy was ordered by the legal authorities. Prior to autopsy, total-body MRI and CT were performed. Results of the ante- and postmortem investigations were compared with each other and then w...

A simultaneous analytical method for etizolam and its main metabolites (alpha-hydroxyetizolam and 8-hydroxyetizolam) in whole blood was developed using solid-phase extraction, TMS derivatization and ion trap gas chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS). Separation of etizolam, TMS derivatives of alpha-hydroxyetizolam and 8-hydroxyetizolam and fludiazepam as internal standard was performed within about 17min. The inter-day precision evaluated at the concentration of 50ng/mL etizolam, alpha-hydroxyetizolam and 8-hydroxyetizolam was evalua...

Conjugates of p-hydroxymethamphetamine and 4-hydroxy-3-methoxymethamphetamine in blood obtained from methamphetamine and 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine users: analysis by LC-MS-MS

Tuesday, October 28th, 2008

Abstract  A detailed procedure for simultaneous analysis of methamphetamine (MA), 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) and their
metabolites including the conjugates in whole blood by liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry
(LC-ESI-MS-MS) has been established. The methods were well validated and applied to users’ blood specimens. The blood concentrations
of MA users (n = 11) ranged from <1.0 to 131 ng/ml (from <6.1 to 794 nM) for p-hydroxymethamphetamine (p-OHMA), from <2.0 to 46.7 ng/ml (from <5.9 to 137 nM) for p-OHMA-glucuronide (p-OHMA-Glu), and from 3.8 to 495 ng/ml (from 15.5 to 2020 nM) for p-OHMA-sulfate (p-OHMA-Sul). The molar conjugation percentage [(p-OHMA-Sul + p-OHMA-Glu)/(p-OHMA + p-OHMA-Sul + p-OHMA-Glu) × 100%] ...
