Abstract
The use of isotope-labelled drugs as internal standards, or to elucidate some analytical problem, is a very powerful technique. The approach is often quicker and easier than alternative methods and sometimes is the only solution to the problem. Chromatographic separation followed by mass spectrographs (MS) detection of test and isotopic labelled materials is generally considered to be the definitive analytical technique but is not without its difficulties and pitfalls.
