  2. The Epidemic is coming (Tucson News KOLD/KMSB)

  3. Synthetic Analog Problem • DEA Temporary Placement of JWH-018, JWH-073, JWH-200, CP47,497 and CP47,497 C8 homolog, MDPV, Mephedrone, Methylone on Schedule 1 • H.R. 1254: Synthetic Drug Control Act of 2011 • AK S 17: Classifies certain synthetic cannabinoids as schedule IIA controlled substances. • AL H 158, S 207 and S 208: Relates to schedule I controlled substances; provides legislative findings relating to controlled substance analogs; adds cathinone compounds, certain named chemical compounds of synthetic cannabinoids, and controlled substance analogs to the schedule I controlled substances list subject to regulation and penalties in the same manner as other controlled substances. • AZ S 1043: Relates to dangerous drugs; relates to definition. • AZ H 2388: Adds AM-2201 and JWH-122 to the definition of “dangerous drugs” and to schedule I. Relates to authority to define the chemical composition of controlled substances included in drug schedules; provides for authority to include chemical variations of those substances as necessary; provides consideration of a substance’s potential for abuse, pharmacological effect, current scientific knowledge and the risk to public health; requires written report; exempts the board of pharmacy from rulemaking requirements. • CA A 2420: Provides that every person who possesses, under circumstances that do not include possession for sale as proscribed pursuant to existing law, 28.5 grams or less of any synthetic cannabinoid or any synthetic stimulant compound, or any synthetic stimulant derivative is guilty of an infraction punishable by a specified fine. • HI S 1305: Adds HU-210, JWH-018, JWH-073 to controlled substances provisions.

  23. Data Acquisition and Instrument Control software based on Thermo GRAMS™

  24. Chromatogram Trace Spectrum Trace Spectrum Trace

  25. QA/QC / Performance Qualification • Voltage check to ensure detector is working properly • Noise check to ensure proper signal/noise ratio • NIST traceable polystyrene scan is performed • A test mix (amphetamine, phentermine, pseudoephedrine, caffeine, cocaine and alprazolam) enables : • GC check (proper separation) • IR detector (proper identification)

  26. Example of a Daily Test Mix Chromatogram

  27. Typical Case Work Sample Preparation • Sample preparation • Sample can be extracted/prepared as if analyzing via GC/MS • MeOH (dilute and shoot type) • Basic CHCl3, Basic Hex, Acidic CHCl3 • Acidic Hex • Normal GC/MS vials can be used no real change of procedure needs to be employed
