Determination of 12 commonly found compounds in DUID cases in whole blood using fully automated supported liquid extraction and UHPLC-MSMS.
A high-throughput UHPLC-MSMS method for the most frequently found compounds tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), amphetamine, methamphetamine, MDMA, clonazepam, diazepam, nordiazepam, oxazepam, alprazolam, nitrazepam, morphine, and codeine, in driving under the influence of drugs (DUID) cases in whole blood, is presented. Automated sample preparation by 96-well supported liquid extraction (SLE) plates with ethyl acetate heptane (80 20, vv) as organic solvent was carried out on a Freedom Evo 200 platform from Tecan. An aliquot of 100 μL whole blood was used. Sample preparation time for 96 samples was 1.5 h. Compounds were separated with gradient elution on a C
