Figure 2. Representative calibration curves for JWH-018 and JWH-073 metabolites showing linearity from 2-1,000 ng/mL in urine

Results and Discussion

The method is linear from 2 to 1,000 ng/mL with R

2

val-

ues greater than 0.99 for all compounds (Figure 2). Table 1

shows QC precision and bias data for the validation runs.

A 15-minute run was required to chromatographi-

cally separate the analytes of interest from endogenous

interferences. Figures 3 and 4 show this chromatographic

resolution in a 2-ng/mL and 100-ng/mL standard, respec-

tively. Figure 5 shows a SRM chromatogram from a self-

confessed consumption sample.
