Quantitation of 22 fentanyl analog compounds on an Orbitrap Exploris 120 mass spectrometer

12 Nov 2023

In this application note from Thermo Fisher Scientific, explore a method for quantitation of the Traceable Opioid Material™ (TOM) kit compounds in urine that includes sample preparation by supported liquid extraction (SLE), quantitation by full scan high-resolution accurate mass (HRAM) data, and confident confirmation by retention time, accurate m/z, isotopic pattern matching and experimental matching of collected MS2 spectra to an in-house MS2 library of 213 fentanyl analog compounds.

Mass SpectrometryMass spectrometry (MS) is a powerful analytical technique used to identify and quantify molecules based on the mass-to-charge ratio of gas-phase ions. It provides detailed information about the structure, composition, and properties of compounds and is widely used across fields such as environmental monitoring, materials science, drug discovery and development, food and beverage testing, and wider chemical research. Key MS techniques include tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LS-MS) and inductively coupled plasma (ICP-MS). Choosing from these wide range of techniques and technologies can be a daunting task, so keep up to date with scientific applications, performance expectations, and customer reviews here all in one place.
