Developments of Forensic Toxicological Analysis of Methamphetamine

  • Conference paper
Forensic Science Progress

Part of the book series: Forensic Science Progress ((FORENSIC,volume 4))

Abstract

From the standpoint of forensic toxicological and criminological examinations, recent analyses of methamphetamine have been reviewed. The literature related to analytical techniques has been divided into two parts. In the first part, attention has been directed to basic and commonly used techniques, including thin layer chromatography, gas chromatography, gas chromatography/mass spectrometry, high performance liquid chromatography, nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry, and immunoassay. The second part is concerned with practical applications such as examination of enantiomers, illegal drugs, biological samples including hard materials such as hair, nail or bone, and stains of sweat and saliva.
