Gas chromatographic/mass spectrometric determination of lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) in serum samples

Forensic Science International August 1, 1997 Frank Mußhoff, T. Daldrup 29 citations

A method to detect and measure LSD in blood serum uses liquid-liquid extraction followed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry of a trimethylsilyl derivative. Tests on spiked samples recovered 76% of the LSD, with a coefficient of variation of 9.3%. The method is linear across 0.1–10 ng/ml. The work also presents evidence of LSD's sensitivity to light and includes case examples.

Mono-/polyintoxication with 5F-ADB: A case series.

Forensic science international August 1, 2019 Michael Kraemer, Helena Fels, Torsten Dame et al.

5F-ADB, a synthetic cannabinoid, has been found in legal high products and biological samples, linked to serious health effects and deaths. This report describes five cases of verified 5F-ADB consumption, including three fatalities, a driving under the influence case, and a grievous bodily harm case. In four cases, 5F-ADB was detected in blood or plasma at concentrations between 0.11 and 0.57 μg/L; one case confirmed consumption via metabolite detection in postmortem fluids. Adverse effects observed include confusion (possibly psychosis), collapse, loss of consciousness, unsafe driving, and mood changes, all potentially attributable to 5F-ADB.
