1. 颜色测试试剂溶液的制备
注: 将0.12 克硝酸铜重三水成干100毫升的烧杯。加入30毫升的去离子 (DI) 水, 在室温下小心地旋转, 以溶解所有固体。将这个溶液倒入100毫升的容积烧瓶中, 用 DI 水填充到标定的标记上。这个准备好的溶液是试剂1。 注: 试剂1可使用其他铜 (ii) 盐,如氯化铜 (ii) 制备。
<ol><li>称0.11 克 29-二甲基-110-邻菲咯啉 (试剂) 半水合物为干100毫升烧杯。加入50毫升0.10 摩尔/L 盐酸 (HCl), 并使用玻璃搅拌棒促进固体在室温下溶解。将这个溶液倒入100毫升的容积烧瓶中, 用0.10 摩尔/L HCl 填充到标定的标记上。这个准备好的溶液是试剂2。 注意: 试剂是剧毒的, 会引起皮肤发炎和严重的眼部损伤。在处理时戴上手套和安全眼镜, 以尽量减少暴露的风险。 注: 试剂只是微溶于水, 因此, 稀酸用于制备此试剂, 并确保所有固体溶解。</li>
	<li>将16.4 克醋酸钠放入干100毫升的烧杯中。加入50毫升的 DI 水, 用玻璃搅拌棒在室温下促进固体的溶解。将这个溶液倒入100毫升的容积烧瓶中, 用 DI 水填充到标定的标记上。这个准备好的溶液是试剂3。 注意: 协议可以在此处暂停。该试剂是高度稳定的, 可储存在室温下长达12月。</li>
</ol>2. 颜色测试
<ol><li>收集一个清洁的瓷斑板, 三一次性管, 三试剂解决方案在步骤 2.1, 一清洁刮刀, 电动板和样品/缴获的材料进行测试。</li>
	<li>使用刮刀, 放置一个小的, 针头大小的数量 (约 0.1-0.2 毫克) 的未知样品成三单独的井瓷斑板。留下三相邻井空 (空白控制) 和另外三个井与相等的数额 4-methylmethcathinone HCl (4-MMC), 一个综合 cathinone 参考样品 (正面控制)。 注: 首选的测试表面是瓷斑板。如果这些不可用, 使用塑料微板或半微型试管。</li>
	<li>使用一次性吸管, 添加5滴硝酸铜溶液 (试剂 1) 到每个样品井, 除了空白和积极控制井。</li>
	<li>使用第二个一次性吸管, 添加2滴的试剂溶液 (试剂 2) 到每个样品井, 除了空白和积极控制井。</li>
	<li>使用第三个一次性吸管, 添加2滴醋酸钠溶液 (试剂 3) 到每个样品井, 除了空白和积极控制井。 注: 溶液变成浅蓝色。</li>
	<li>将瓷斑板直接放置在80° c 的电动板上。 注: 请勿在板上直接加热塑料微板。准备一个浅沸腾的水浴, 设置塑料板。在小型沸水浴中加热半微量试管。观察颜色变化所需的精确时间将取决于光斑板的厚度和组成。 注意: 在处理斑点板时要小心, 以防烫伤。</li>
	<li>加热10分钟后, 用肉眼观察并注意最终颜色的变化或拍摄最后颜色变化的照片。 注意: 使用白色背景可以更好地可视化颜色变化。</li>

作者没有什么可透露的。

这种颜色测试协议是根据苏拉亚·奥贝德et al发布的实验工作改编的。18中, 作者演示了在阿拉伯茶叶工厂提取的 cathinone 中出现颜色变化的情况。对已公布的议定书进行修改是必要的, 以预见其在推定的非法药物检测中的应用。最重要的考虑是减少反应的规模。本文件所述的议定书旨在适用于街头抽样和药物缉获。
所描述的协议提供了一个简单的假设?...

非法药物市场的运作与传统业务相似, 继续发展并适应不断变化的市场。现代技术的进步, 特别是在全球范围内, 强大的通信的激增, 通过暗网1和用户之间通过在线论坛2的广泛知识共享而增加了在线购买。与化学的进步相结合, 新的精神活性物质 (NPS) 的迅速出现, 给国际和国家药物管制带来了严重的挑战。
NPS 是有潜在危险的滥用药物, 对国际管制下的药物有类似的影响。最初作为 "法律" 的替代品销售, 在2009和 20163之间向联合国毒品和犯罪问题办事处 (禁毒办) 报告了 739 NPS。根据最近的年度报告, 在澳大利亚边境截获了一个记录数量的 NPS, 其中大多数是经过分析的, 进一步被确定为合成 cathinones4。在全球范围内, 自2010年首次报告以来, 合成 cathinones 的缉获量稳步增加, 是最常见的被缉获的 NPS5之一。
NPS 所构成的挑战主要是已发布的讨论主题6,7。法医实验室和执法人员处于劣势, 没有适当的方法在迅速出现时发现和识别核动力源。广泛的研究, 包括合成 cathinones 的检测, 在缴获的材料, 已使用气相色谱-质谱 (gc-ms)8和液相色谱-高分辨率质谱 (LC-人力资源)9验证性分析。对最小样品制备的需求不断增加, 已见红外和拉曼光谱10研究以及环境电离质谱分析, 如实时质谱直接分析 (DART-MS)11,12. 在该领域对快速、敏感的分析的需要也看到了将纸喷雾电离质谱 (PSI) 纳入到便携式设备中, 供执法人员13使用。许多仪器技术提供了验证性的分析与敏感的检测和定量的结果。但是, 对于高通量分析, 由于样品的准备、运行时间和仪器的培训和维护, 它们可能会耗费时间。
假定的颜色测试旨在建议在测试示例14中存在或缺少某些药物类。被缉获药物分析科学工作组 (SWGDRUG) 将颜色测试归类为最低的辨别力技术, 同时使用紫外光谱和免疫15。但是, 与其他技术相比, 执法部门和其他安全人员仍然广泛雇用他们, 以大大降低成本提供迅速的结果。彩色斑点测试方法所提供的主要优势是能够使用便携式测试套件在现场执行。
颜色测试的选择性取决于测试试剂与药物类之间发生的个别化学反应, 从而产生颜色变化。目前的推定测试协议缺乏检测合成 cathinones 的特殊测试;通常使用的试剂缺乏特异性和含有有害物质。其他推荐试剂尚未在大量可能的合成 cathinone 物质上进行筛选16。
这项工作的目的是提出一个简单的颜色测试协议, 可以很容易地使用的有关各方的初步筛选的合成 cathinones 在未知成分的非法物质。有关各方将包括执法部门、边防保护机构、法医实验室和其他有关安全人员。所提出的方法采用电子接受铜络合物试剂和富电子合成 cathinone 药物分子之间的还原氧化反应。使用这些化学方法开发, 你可以应用它们的形式推定颜色测试, 建议存在的合成 cathinones。

Qualitative Identification of Carboxylic Acids, Boronic Acids, and Amines Using Cruciform Fluorophores

Molecular cruciforms are X-shaped systems in which two conjugation axes intersect at a central core. If one axis of these molecules is substituted with electron-donors, and the other with electron-acceptors, cruciforms&#39; HOMO will localize along the electron-rich and LUMO along the electron-poor axis. This spatial isolation of cruciforms&#39; frontier molecular orbitals (FMOs) is essential to their use as sensors, since analyte binding to the cruciform invariably changes its HOMO-LUMO gap and the associated optical properties. Using this principle, Bunz and Miljani&#263; groups developed 1,4-distyryl-2,5-bis(arylethynyl)benzene and benzobisoxazole cruciforms, respectively, which act as fluorescent sensors for metal ions, carboxylic acids, boronic acids, phenols, amines, and anions. The emission colors observed when these cruciform are mixed with analytes are highly sensitive to the details of analyte&#39;s structure and - because of cruciforms&#39; charge-separated excited states - to the solvent in which emission is observed. Structurally closely related species can be qualitatively distinguished within several analyte classes: (a) carboxylic acids; (b) boronic acids, and (c) metals. Using a hybrid sensing system composed from benzobisoxazole cruciforms and boronic acid additives, we were also able to discern among structurally similar: (d) small organic and inorganic anions, (e) amines, and (f) phenols. The method used for this qualitative distinction is exceedingly simple. Dilute solutions (typically 10-6 M) of cruciforms in several off-the-shelf solvents are placed in UV/Vis vials. Then, analytes of interest are added, either directly as solids or in concentrated solution. Fluorescence changes occur virtually instantaneously and can be recorded through standard digital photography using a semi-professional digital camera in a dark room. With minimal graphic manipulation, representative cut-outs of emission color photographs can be arranged into panels which permit quick naked-eye distinction among analytes. For quantification purposes, Red/Green/Blue values can be extracted from these photographs and the obtained numeric data can be statistically processed.

Cross-conjugated cruciform fluorophores based on 1,4-distyryl-2,5-bis(arylethynyl)benzene and benzobisoxazole nuclei can be used to qualitatively identify diverse Lewis acidic and Lewis basic analytes. This method relies on the differences in emission colors of the cruciforms that are observed upon analyte addition. Structurally closely related species can be distinguished from each other.

Rapid High-throughput Species Identification of Botanical Material Using Direct Analysis in Real Time High Resolution Mass Spectrometry

We demonstrate that direct analysis in real time-high resolution mass spectrometry can be used to produce mass spectral profiles of botanical material, and that these chemical fingerprints can be used for plant species identification. The mass spectral data can be acquired rapidly and in a high throughput manner without the need for sample extraction, derivatization or pH adjustment steps. The use of this technique bypasses challenges presented by more conventional techniques including lengthy chromatography analysis times and resource intensive methods. The high throughput capabilities of the direct analysis in real time-high resolution mass spectrometry protocol, coupled with multivariate statistical analysis processing of the data, provide not only class characterization of plants, but also yield species and varietal information. Here, the technique is demonstrated with two psychoactive plant products, Mitragyna speciosa (Kratom) and Datura (Jimsonweed), which were subjected to direct analysis in real time-high resolution mass spectrometry followed by statistical analysis processing of the mass spectral data. The application of these tools in tandem enabled the plant materials to be rapidly identified at the level of variety and species.

A method for species identification of botanical material by direct analysis in real time-high resolution mass spectrometry and multivariate statistical analysis is presented.

Fluorescent Paper Strips for the Detection of Diesel Adulteration with Smartphone Read-out

Three fluorescent molecular rotors of 4-dimethylamino-4-nitrostilbene (4-DNS) were investigated for their potential use as viscosity probes to indicate the content of kerosene in diesel/kerosene blends, a wide-spread activity to adulterate fuel. In solvents with low viscosity, the dyes rapidly deactivate via a so-called twisted intramolecular charge transfer state, efficiently quenching the fluorescence. Measurements of diesel/kerosene blends revealed a good linear correlation between the decrease in fluorescence and the increase of the fraction of the less viscous kerosene in diesel/kerosene blends. Immobilization of the hydroxy derivative 4-DNS-OH in cellulose paper yielded test strips that preserve the fluorescent indicator&#39;s behavior. Combination of the strips with a reader based on a smartphone and a controlling app allowed to create a simple field test. The method can reliably detect the presence of kerosene in diesel from 7 to 100%, outperforming present standard methods for diesel adulteration.

Here, we present a protocol to detect the adulteration of diesel with kerosene using test strips coated with a fluorescent viscosity probe together with a smartphone-based analysis system.

A Convenient Method for Extraction and Analysis with High-Pressure Liquid Chromatography of Catecholamine Neurotransmitters and Their Metabolites

The extraction and analysis of catecholamine neurotransmitters in biological fluids is of great importance in assessing nervous system function and related diseases, but their precise measurement is still a challenge. Many protocols have been described for neurotransmitter measurement by a variety of instruments, including high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). However, there are shortcomings, such as complicated operation or hard-to-detect multiple targets, which cannot be avoided, and presently, the dominant analysis technique is still HPLC coupled with sensitive electrochemical or fluorimetric detection, due to its high sensitivity and good selectivity. Here, a detailed protocol is described for the pretreatment and detection of catecholamines with high pressure liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection (HPLC-ECD) in real urine samples of infants, using electrospun composite nanofibers composed of polymeric crown ether with polystyrene as adsorbent, also known as the packed-fiber solid phase extraction (PFSPE) method. We show how urine samples can be easily precleaned by a nanofiber-packed solid phase column, and how the analytes in the sample can be rapidly enriched, desorbed, and detected on an ECD system. PFSPE greatly simplifies the pretreatment procedures for biological samples, allowing for decreased time, expense, and reduction of the loss of targets. 
Overall, this work illustrates a simple and convenient protocol for solid-phase extraction coupled to an HPLC-ECD system for simultaneous determination of three monoamine neurotransmitters (norepinephrine (NE), epinephrine (E), dopamine (DA)) and two of their metabolites (3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylglycol (MHPG) and 3,4-dihydroxy-phenylacetic acid (DOPAC)) in infants' urine. The established protocol was applied to assess the differences of urinary catecholamines and their metabolites between high-risk infants with perinatal brain damage and healthy controls. Comparative analysis revealed a significant difference in urinary MHPG between the two groups, indicating that the catecholamine metabolites may be an important candidate marker for early diagnosis of cases at risk for brain damage in infants.

We present a convenient solid-phase extraction coupled to high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) with electrochemical detection (ECD) for simultaneous determination of three monoamine neurotransmitters and two of their metabolites in infants' urine. We also identify the metabolite MHPG as a potential biomarker for the early diagnosis of brain damage for infants.

High-throughput and Comprehensive Drug Surveillance Using Multisegment Injection-Capillary Electrophoresis-Mass Spectrometry

New analytical methods are urgently needed to enable high-throughput, yet comprehensive drug screening, given an alarming opioid and prescription drug crisis in public health. Conventional urine drug testing based on a two-tier immunoassay screen followed by a gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS) or liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method are expensive and prone to bias while being limited to targeted panels of known drugs of abuse (DoA). Herein, we outline an improved method for drug surveillance that allows for the resolution and detection of an expanded panel of DoA and their metabolites when using multisegment injection-capillary electrophoresis-mass spectrometry (MSI-CE-MS). Multiplexed separations of ten urine samples with a quality control by CE (&lt; 3 min/sample) in conjunction with full-scan data acquisition using a time-of-flight mass spectrometer (TOF-MS) under positive ion mode detection allows for the identification and quantification of DoA above recommended cut-off levels. An excellent resolution of drug isomers and isobars, including background interferences, are achieved when using MSI-CE-MS with an electrokinetic spacer between sample segments, where accurate mass/molecular formula together with the comigration of a matching deuterated internal standard and the detection of one or more bio-transformed metabolites facilitate DoA identification over a wider detection window. Additionally, urine samples can be analyzed directly without enzyme deconjugation for the rapid screening without complicated sample workup. MSI-CE-MS enables the surveillance of a broad spectrum of DoA that is required for the treatment monitoring of high-risk patients, including confirming prescribed drug adherence, revealing illicit drug use/substitution, and evaluating optimal dosage regimes as required for new advances in precision medicine.

Here we describe a high-throughput method for comprehensive drug surveillance that allows for the improved resolution and detection of large panels of drugs of abuse and their metabolites, with quality control based on multisegment injection-capillary electrophoresis-mass spectrometry.

A Two-Step Pyrolysis-Gas Chromatography Method with Mass Spectrometric Detection for Identification of Tattoo Ink Ingredients and Counterfeit Products

Tattoo inks are complex mixtures of ingredients. Each of them possesses different chemical properties which have to be addressed upon chemical analysis. In this method for two-step pyrolysis online coupled to gas chromatography mass spectrometry (py-GC-MS) volatile compounds are analyzed during a first desorption run. In the second run, the same dried sample is pyrolyzed for analysis of non-volatile compounds such as pigments and polymers. These can be identified by their specific decomposition patterns. Additionally, this method can be used to differentiate original from counterfeit inks. Easy screening methods for data evaluation using the average mass spectra and self-made pyrolysis libraries are applied to speed up substance identification. Using specialized evaluation software for pyrolysis GS-MS data, a fast and reliable comparison of the full chromatogram can be achieved. Since GC-MS is used as separation technique, the method is limited to volatile substances upon desorption and after pyrolysis of the sample. The method can be applied for quick substance screening in market control surveys since it requires no sample preparation steps.

This method for two-step pyrolysis online coupled to gas chromatography with mass spectrometric detection and data evaluation protocol can be used for multi-component analysis of tattoo inks and discrimination of counterfeit products.

Rapid In Situ Hybridization using Oligonucleotide Probes on Paraformaldehyde-prefixed Brain of Rats with Serotonin Syndrome

3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA; ecstasy) toxicity may cause region-specific changes in serotonergic mRNA expression due to acute serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine; 5-HT) syndrome. This hypothesis can be tested using in situ hybridization to detect the serotonin 5-HT2A receptor gene htr2a. In the past, such procedures, utilizing radioactive riboprobe, were difficult because of the complicated workflow that needs several days to perform and the added difficulty that the technique required the use of fresh frozen tissues maintained in an RNase-free environment. Recently, the development of short oligonucleotide probes has simplified in situ hybridization procedures and allowed the use of paraformaldehyde-prefixed brain sections, which are more widely available in laboratories. Here, we describe a detailed protocol using non-radioactive oligonucleotide probes on the prefixed brain tissues. Hybridization probes used for this study include dapB (a bacterial gene coding for dihydrodipicolinate reductase), ppiB (a housekeeping gene coding for peptidylprolyl isomerase B), and htr2a (a serotonin gene coding for 5-HT2A receptors). This method is relatively simply, cheap, reproducible and requires less than two days to complete.

Fentanyl Analog Screening using LC-TIMS-TOF MS/MS

The use of fentanyl and the emergence of fentanyl analogs over recent decades has become an increasing concern to the community at large. Fentanyl and its analogs are the major contributors to fatal and nonfatal overdoses in the United States. Most recent cases of fentanyl-related overdose are linked to illicitly manufactured fentanyl and its associated extreme potency. In the present work, we describe a high-throughput analytical protocol for the screening of fentanyl analogs. The use of complementary liquid chromatography, trapped ion mobility spectrometry, and tandem mass spectrometry allow for the separation and assignment of hundreds of fentanyl analogs from a single sample in a single scan. The described approach takes advantage of the recent development of data-dependent acquisition and data-independent acquisition using parallel accumulation in the mobility trap followed by sequential fragmentation using collision-induced dissociation. The fentanyl analogs are confidently assigned based on their retention time, mobility, and MS fragmentation pattern.
