HPLC Buffers & Solutions for Drugs of Abuse Analysis
High-Quality HPLC Mobile Phases, Buffers & Solutions for Drug Screening
Drugs of Abuse (DOA) analysis is an important analytical application in clinical toxicology, forensic laboratories, pharmaceutical research, and drug screening programs. Chromatographic techniques such as High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) can be used for the separation, identification, and quantitative analysis of a wide range of drugs and their metabolites in biological and other laboratory samples.
Reliable drug analysis by HPLC requires a compatible analytical system, appropriate chromatographic column, detector, and high-quality HPLC-grade solvents, buffers, mobile phases, and analytical reagents.
HPLC Solutions for Drugs of Abuse Analysis
We provide a range of HPLC-grade solvents, buffers, mobile phases, and prepared solutions suitable for different chromatographic drug analysis applications.
Depending on the validated analytical method, HPLC-based testing may be applied to compounds and drug classes such as:
- Amphetamines
- Methamphetamine
- Cocaine and related compounds
- Opiates and opioids
- Benzodiazepines
- Barbiturates
- Cannabinoids and related compounds
- Methadone
- Other drugs and metabolites, depending on the analytical method
HPLC Mobile Phases & Buffers for Drug Analysis
The selection of the appropriate HPLC mobile phase and buffer is essential for achieving effective chromatographic separation, suitable peak shape, stable retention times, and reproducible analytical performance.
Depending on the target compound and analytical method, HPLC drug analysis may require combinations of HPLC-grade water, methanol, acetonitrile, phosphate or other aqueous buffers, organic modifiers, acids, and other compatible reagents.
The appropriate mobile phase composition and analytical conditions depend on the target analyte, sample matrix, chromatographic column, detector, and validated laboratory method.
Drugs of Abuse Testing Using HPLC
Chromatographic drug analysis can be used in a variety of laboratory applications, including:
Clinical Toxicology | Forensic Laboratories | Drug Screening | Pharmaceutical Research | Hospital Laboratories | Addiction Treatment Programs | Research Laboratories
HPLC can provide effective chromatographic separation for selected drugs and metabolites. For confirmation and highly specific identification of certain compounds, laboratories may use LC-MS/MS, GC-MS, or other validated analytical techniques, depending on regulatory and laboratory requirements.
