  • Fundamentals of Mass Spectrometry used in Toxicology

    This module will review combining chromatography and mass spectrometry for the confirmatory test to identify and quantify the specific compound, drug, or drug metabolite. The purpose of mass spectrometry is to obtain a unique, reproducible fragmentation pattern of a particular molecular species. Whether a mass spectrometer uses a direct introduction source, gas chromatography (or GC), or liquid chromatography (or LC), some components are common for all instruments.

    Specifically, an ionization source is at the inlet, followed by a mass selective detector that allows for the selection of particular masses, and the final component is a detector that translates and amplifies the selected ion signal into an electronic signal sufficient for data processing. This course will cover these three components for the major types of nominal mass and higher-resolution mass spectrometer instrumentation currently available.

  • Fundamentals of Sample Preparation used in Toxicology

    This course addresses sample preparation techniques that may be used for confirmatory testing of urine, blood and tissue specimens in forensic drug testing laboratories. All specimens with positive initial drug test results must be analyzed using a confirmatory drug test to identify and quantify the specific drug or drug metabolite. Specimens routinely undergo sample preparation prior to confirmatory analysis. This course covers sample pre-treatment techniques, extraction theory as well as both solid phase and liquid phase extraction techniques, and derivatization.
