Evaluation of Internal Standard Inclusion for Qualitative Analysis of Seized Drugs using DART-MS

December 18, 2021

Author(s)

Edward Sisco, Amber Burns, Elizabeth Schneider, Ikenna Ikpeama

Rapid and accurate screening tools for seized drug analysis continue to be needed due to the complexities associated with the emerging drug landscape. Direct analysis in real-time mass spectrometry (DART-MS) is one technique that has been used for this

A Framework for the Development of a Targeted Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) Method for the Analysis of Synthetic Cannabinoids

October 8, 2021

Author(s)

Edward Sisco, Amber Burns, Arun Moorthy

With the increased presence of novel psychoactive substances (NPSs) in casework, seized drug analysis has become more complex and challenging. To assist in addressing these challenges, a suite of targeted gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS)

Development and Evaluation of a Targeted Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) Method for Analysis of Synthetic Cathinones

October 8, 2021

Author(s)

Edward Sisco, Amber Burns, Arun Moorthy

With the increased prevalence of novel psychoactive substances (NPSs), seized drug analysis has become more complex and challenging due, in part, to changing chemical structures and isomeric species. To assist in addressing these challenges a series of

Screening and Confirmation of Seized Drugs Utilizing Portable Raman Spectroscopy (TacticID) and Direct Analysis in Real Time-Mass Spectrometry (DART-MS)

October 8, 2021

Author(s)

Travon Cooman, Colby E. Ott, Kourtney A. Dalzell, Amber Burns, Edward Sisco, Luis E. Arroyo

The continuous change of the drug landscape in the United States demands adaptation and incorporation of emerging analytical methods that preferably allow onsite screening but are also capable of supporting the analysis of seized drugs received at forensic

Development and Evaluation of a Synthetic Opioid Targeted Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) Method

August 30, 2021

Author(s)

Edward Sisco, Amber Burns, Arun Moorthy

A method for the targeted confirmation of synthetic opioids and related compounds was developed and evaluated. Using an 11-component test solution a method was developed that focused on maximizing chromatographic separation and understanding the influence
