Experimental
Sample Preparation
Tables 1 and 2 contain the lists of opiates and
benzodiazepines analyzed. Sample preparation consisted
of glucuronide hydrolysis followed by dilution. For each
sample, a 200 µL aliquot of urine was spiked with 10 µL
of internal standards solution and 100 µL of
b
-glucuronidaze enzyme in an ammonium acetate buffer
(pH = 5.0). The samples were incubated at 60 °C for
2 hours. A 200 µL aliquot of methanol was added to each
sample to stop enzymatic reaction. Samples were cooled,
centrifuged, and diluted 20 times with deionized water.
Then, 20 µL of sample was injected into the liquid
chromatograph-mass spectrometer (LC-MS) system.
