Analysis of 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) and its metabolites in plasma and urine by HPLC-DAD and GC-MS.

abstract：:A simple isocratic HPLC procedure for the analysis of cocaine in plasma, with or without an internal standard, is described for the first time. Basified plasma was extracted in ether, re-extracted in acetic acid, which was subsequently basified prior to the final extraction in n-hexane. The hexane extract was evaporat...
