Fluorescence analysis of p-hydroxymethamphetamine in urine by thin-layer chromatography.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A highly-sensitive analytical method for the detection of p-hydroxymethamphetamine (pOHMA) in urine is presented. The proposed method combines liquid-liquid extraction with acetonitrile and solid-phase extraction by thin-layer chromatography (TLC) with oxidation using potassium hexacyanoferrate(III) and sodium hydroxide to detect the fluorophor of pOHMA. The detection limit for pOHMA is 10 ng (n = 3). The analysis of pOHMA in forensic samples is successfully performed, without interference from endogenous fluorophors, yielding concentrations in the appropriate range for methamphetamine abusers.

Use of fluorescamine ("Fluram") to detect amphetamine in urine by thin-layer chromatography.
A “Fluram” (fluorescamine; 4-phenylspiro[furan2(3H)-1 ‘-phthalan]-3,3’-dione) spray reagent will detect as little as 250 ng of amphetamine in an extract of amphetamine-containing urine, after it has been separated by thin-layer chromatography. The fluorescence is stable for about 20 h and can be renewed by respraying. Fluram spray does not interfere with reagent sprays used to detect other drug...
متن کاملA Thin Layer Imaging with the Total Internal Reflection Fluorescence Microscopy
Total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy (TIRFM) is an optical technique that allows imaging of a thin layer of the sample with a thickness of about 100-200 nm. It is used in science of cell biology to study cellular processes, especially near the membranes of living cells. This method is based on the total internal reflection phenomenon, where the evanescent wave is generated in the l...

Four commercial assays for the screening of cannabinoids in urine were compared. Urine specimens from 93 selected subjects were run by fluorescence polarization immunoassay on the Abbott TDx; by enzyme multiplied immunoassay with two Syva EMIT assays; and by thin-layer chromatography with the TOXI-LAB system (Marion Laboratories). The TDx cannabinoid threshold can be set anywhere from 25 to 150...

متن کاملClinical issues associated with urine testing of substances of abuse.
Several factors may affect the validity and outcome of urine testing for abused drugs such as amphetamines, barbiturates, benzodiazepines, cannabinoids, cocaine, ethanol, opiates, and phencyclidine. Urine is used for large-scale testing because acquisition of the sample is noninvasive and because most abused drugs can be detected in urine for a reasonable duration after ingestion. Urine testing...
