Is your lab constantly challenged by case backlog while trying to validate new methods to identify designer drugs?
Your challenge is common to many forensic toxicology and controlled substance testing labs around the world. To manage challenges, forensic labs deploy a variety of analytical tools, and techniques, such as immunoassay, GC-MS and LC-MS, to arrive at that conclusive result that will hold in the court of law.
Learn about a unique quantitative high resolution accurate LC-MS solution which offers versatile analytical workflows to meet forensic laboratory requirements for screening, quantitation, unknown identification and bulk substance analysis all in one platform. The presented solution utilizes the Thermo Scientific Q Exactive Focus quadrupole-Orbitrap mass spectrometer to collect highly specific data allowing confident identification and quantitation of compounds. Targeted and universal screening workflows with retrospective data analysis capabilities will be discussed along with confirmatory quantitative methods utilizing parallel reaction monitoring experiment (PRM). Examples of unknown structure identification of a real-case designer drug and bulk substance analysis with a DART source will also be presented.
For forensic use only.
