Results
For each method, performance was within SAMHSA/NIDA guidelines. The
quantitation limits (LOQ) for some compounds were lower than required to
demonstrate method capability. The linear ranges were 2.5-2000 ng/mL for
PCP and THCA; 5-2000 ng/mL for methamphetamine, BE and 6-MAM;
10-2000 ng/mL for morphine, codeine, amphetamine, MDA, and MDMA
(Figure 2). The intra-method precision was <13.5%, <3.5%, <14.1%, <6.9%, <
9.6%, <15.9% for PCP, BE, 6-MAM, THCA, opiates and amphetamines
respectively. The inter-method precision was <8.9%, <3.6%, <10.9%, <8.8%,
<7.0%, <15.3% for PCP, BE, 6-MAM, THCA, opiates and amphetamines
respectively. These results are summarized in Table 2. Limited matrix effects
were seen and those were largely mediated by deuterated internal standards.
The percent recovery for 8 spiked urine donor samples was in range of
80-120% (Table 3). Data collected for opiates with developed methods
correlated well with toxicology laboratory data with coefficient of correlation
>0.99 (Figure 4). Implementation of the dual channel Prelude SPLC system
with syringe pumps improved retention time precision, chromatographic peaks
shape and resolution, thus allowing for short, small solvent consumption LC
methods while still keeping good data quality.
