RESUMO
Objective To establish a method for determination of the azide ions in blood by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) following pentafluorobenzyl derivatization. Methods A blood sample of 0.2 mL was placed into a 10 mL glass test tube, and the internal standard sodium cyanide, derivatization reagent pentafluorobenzyl bromide and catalyst tetradecyl benzyl dimethyl ammonium chloride were added in turn. After vortex mixing, the mixture was heated with low-power microwave for 3 min. After centrifugation, the organic phase was taken for GC-MS analysis. Results The azide ions in blood had a good linear relationship in the mass concentration range of 0.5 to 20 μg/mL. The lowest detection limit was 0.25 μg/mL and the relative recovery was 91.36%-94.58%. The method was successfully applied to a case of death from sodium azide poisoning. The mass concentration of azide ions in the blood of the dead was 11.11 μg/mL. Conclusion The method developed in this paper has strong specificity and is easy to operate, which is suitable for the rapid detection of azide ions in blood.

OBJECTIVE@#To develop a method to measure trihexyphenidyl, chlorpromazine and clozapine in human blood with GC-MS.@*METHODS@#The specimens were alkalized (pH > 10) and extracted with V (benzene):V(ethyl acetate) = 1:1, and qualitatively analyzed using GC-MS-Full Scan with internal standard SKF525A. The specimens were alkalized (pH > 10) and extracted with V(benzene):V(ethyl acetate) = 1:1, and quantitatively analyzed using GC-MS-SIM with internal standard diazepam-d5.@*RESULTS@#The lowest detection limits of trihexyphenidyl, chlorpromazine and clozapine were 0.3, 0.3 and 0.7 ng/mL (S/N > or = 3) respectively. The calibration curve in 20-10 000 ng/mL showed a good linear distribution. The recovery rate was 79.9% to 85.5%. The RSDs of intraday and interday were less than 5.1%.@*CONCLUSION@#The established method was simple, sensitive and accurate for simultaneous determination of trihexyphenidyl, chlorpromazine and clozapine in human blood, and can be applied in forensic toxicological cases.

OBJECTIVE@#To develop a method of SPE-LC-MS/MS for the determination of doxepin in whole blood.@*METHODS@#After solid phase extraction, the samples were identified by LC-MS/MS. Positive ion electrospray ionization mode and multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode was selected. Amitriptyline was used as internal standard. The m/z of doxepin: 280-->107, 280-->235 and 280-->220. The m/z of amitriptyline: 278-->233. The retaining time of doxepin and amitriptyline were 15.15 and 16.94 min, respectively.@*RESULTS@#The calibration curve was linear among the concentration of doxepin range from 0.005 to 1.00 microg/mL. The linear correlation equation was y = 3.2047x + 0.0339, the correlation coefficient was 0.9996. The detection limit of doxepin was 0.001 microg/mL and average recovery rate was 78.0%-82.9%. The relative standard precision for within-day and between-day were less than 2.55% and 5.90%, respectively.@*CONCLUSION@#The method is effective, simple, reliable and can be used in the determination of doxepin in whole blood.
