Electrochemical Strategies for the Screening of Synthetic Cannabinoid BB-22 (QUCHIC) within a Toxicological Specimen

Synthetic Cannabinoids (SC) are amongst the most prevalent class of novel psychoactive substances (NPS) which have emerged. The increase in hospitalisation and fatalities as a result prevalence these SC their abuse, highlights necessity for rapid reliable screening substance within toxicological samples. Being able to rapidly screen would aim improve overdose triage ultimately treatment administration. Not only this but it further advantages in-field applications such identification drivers under influence. To avail we investigate ability simple electrochemical strategy detection SC, BB-22 its primary metabolite BB-22-3-Carboxyindole. Assessment feasibility implementation into sample analysis was performed through not ideal electrolyte conditions (down 5 μ M 2 metabolite) also complex biological matrix human pooled serum (between 200 700 M), relevant likely encounter if employed field.
