Functionalized pipette tips have been available for many years. Marketed for solid phase extraction, these pipette tips carry a solid phase contained within a polymer precipitate located at the end of...
With prescription abuse rising concomitantly with licit pain management, the need to expand a wider degree of drug monitoring within a single method has been increasingly sought after. With the incide...
Solid-phase extraction is generally regarded as the gold standard when comparing sample preparation approaches. However, SPE processing can be laborious and time consuming. In most cases you are requi...

Whole blood continues to be a valuable tool in forensic toxicology for the immediate and near-term detection of illicit drugs, and in cases where no other sample is available. Screening drugs of abuse...
Miniaturisation within various fields of analytical chemistry is not a new phenomenon. Early phase small animal drug trials have largely been the driver due to limited sample sizes available. However,...
Hair analysis is growing in popularity due to the non-invasive nature of the sample collection. Hair testing can also provide advantages over other more widely used matrices, such as determination of ...
The screening for elevated levels of methylmalonic acid (MMA) in serum is commonly used as a clinical diagnostic indicator of Cobalamin (Vitamin B12) deficiency in humans. MMA is commonly analysed usi...
Propofol is used in clinical environments to induce states of anaesthesia or reduced sensitivity during surgical procedures. However, it also has the potential to be abused for short-term hallucinatio...
