Segmental analysis of antidepressant and antipsychotic drugs in the hair of schizophrenic patients.

abstract：:Development of a mass spectrometric method for the unambiguous detection of doping with recombinant human erythropoietins (rhEPO) has been attempted for many years. Unfortunately, progress in this field was hampered by the unavailability of highly purified human endogenous EPOs (urinary[uhEPO], serum/plasma EPO)--a pr...
