The FAB (Fast Atom Bombardment)-mass spectrometric ionization technique, which has now been available for about 1 year, has been successfully employed in forensic toxicology. The mass spectral behaviour of some representative drug-glucuronides (Codeine, p-Nitrophenol and 2-Phenyl-1-propanol) were studied by positive- and negative-ion-FAB-MS. The presented promising results may be of some interest, not only for the analytical toxicologist.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
