Description

Remarque sur l'analyse

Barbiturates are commonly abused and among the most widely tested compounds in clinical, forensic, or therapeutic drug monitoring applications. Shown here is the baseline separation of a set of barbiturates on a Discovery C18 HPLC column after extraction from spikd serum with Discovery DSC-18Lt SPE. Highest grade HPLC solvents were used to supply low background interference and low particulate contamination for robust, trouble-free operation. Cerilliant and Sigma-Aldrich reference standards provided reliable identification and quantification. A Zymark^® RapidTrace^® SPE Workstation was used in this study.
