Emerging Hybrid Separation Detection Techniques for Seized Drugs

1:00 PM ET - 2:00 PM ET

This webinar will describe the great utility of emerging hybrid separation detection techniques for the analysis of seized drugs, particularly applicable to emerging drugs, that can overcome the limitations of classical methods such as gas chromatography (GC)- electron ionization mass spectrometry (EI MS) and gas chromatography- flame ionization detection. Included in this webinar are budding separation techniques such as ultra-high performance supercritical fluid chromatography (UHPSFC) and novel separation approaches utilizing ultra-high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC). Regarding detection techniques low and cold EI MS, and electrospray ionization to produce enhanced molecular ions, and for the differentiation of positional isomers and diastereomers, vacuum ultraviolet, and infrared detection for GC, and ultraviolet detection for UHPSFC and UHPLC will be discussed.
