Toxicological Screening and Quantitation Using Liquid Chromatography/Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry
Journal Title: Journal of Forensic Science & Criminology - Year 2013, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
In recent years, an increasing number of new designer drugs have increased the demands for general toxicological screening. Limited screening based on immunoassays is commonly used in clinical toxicology, whereas more comprehensive approaches are common in forensic toxicology such as screening based on Gas or Liquid Chromatography (GC or LC) approaches.
