Paper Spray - Mass Spectrometry: Investigation of Sampling Devices for Illicit Drug Detection and Quantification

Chau Bao Nguyen (11178123) 06 August 2021 (has links)
Different sampling devices for paper spray - mass spectrometry (PS - MS) were investigated to improve the assay’s simplicity and sensitivity over traditional approaches. In the first one, pressure-sensitive adhesive paper was used as both sampling tool to collect drug residues on surfaces and paper substrate in PS - MS analysis. This method showed a significant improvement in drug collection on surfaces leading to low nano-gram level detection limits. Other sampling device being investigated was snap-in solid-phase extraction column, which demonstrated the ability to detect trace amounts of drugs in plasma while allowed easy transportation and the use of PS - MS automated system.
