Screening of basic drugs in biological samples using dual column capillary chromatography and nitrogen-phosphorus detectors.

abstract：:Due to the lack of certified reference material, a reliable quantification in complex postmortem matrices can only be performed either by the addition of isotope-labelled standards or by the standard addition method. Although standard addition is a basic quantification procedure, its practical implementation is challe...
