Use of High Pressure Liquid Chromatography for the Separation of Drugs of Abuse

Methods for the separation of drugs of abuse based on high pressure liquid chromatography have been developed. One of these, a gradient system, can, within 30–40 minutes, separate 16 common street drugs including phencyclidine (PCP), methadone, cocaine, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), methamphetamine, 2...

Zusammenfassung:Methods for the separation of drugs of abuse based on high pressure liquid chromatography have been developed. One of these, a gradient system, can, within 30–40 minutes, separate 16 common street drugs including phencyclidine (PCP), methadone, cocaine, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), methamphetamine, 2,5-dimethoxy-4-methylamphetamine (STP), methylenedioxyamphetamine (MDA), heroin, N,N-dimethyltryptamine (DMT), lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD), Valium, mescaline, secobarbital, amobarbital, phenobarbital and Dilantin. Adsorption and partition chromatography were both investigated. Adsorption chromatography on Corasil II or Supelcosil-ATF 230 was found to be the most useful and was directly quantifiable. Employment of high pressure liquid chromatography as a preliminary purification to spectral identification of specific drugs was found to be very useful.
