Identification of drugs using a gas chromatography-mass spectrometry system equipped with electron impact-chemical ionization and electron impact-field ionizationfield desorption combination sources. 1976

A Zune, and P Dobberstein, and K H Maurer, and U Rapp

In a case of toxicological analysis by gas chromatography (GC)-mass spectrometry-data system, chemical ionization (CI), field ionization (FI) and electron impact data are shown to lead rapidly to assignments for all significant GC peaks. Valuable data include not only full spectra in the three ionization modes, but also exact mass measurements in the FI or CI mode. Such measurements, obtained by a dynamic peak-matching technique, lead to the elemental composition of the compounds of interest. This knowledge makes the assignment of key GC peaks unequivocal and provides an extremely high level of confidence regarding the identity of whole metabolite series. It is also shown that the nature of the FI information is very similar to that obtained from CI data.

D008702 Methaqualone A quinazoline derivative with hypnotic and sedative properties. It has been withdrawn from the market in many countries because of problems with abuse. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p604) Metolquizolone,Ortonal,Methaqualone Hydrochloride,Optimil,Quaalude,Hydrochloride, Methaqualone
D002110 Caffeine A methylxanthine naturally occurring in some beverages and also used as a pharmacological agent. Caffeine's most notable pharmacological effect is as a central nervous system stimulant, increasing alertness and producing agitation. It also relaxes SMOOTH MUSCLE, stimulates CARDIAC MUSCLE, stimulates DIURESIS, and appears to be useful in the treatment of some types of headache. Several cellular actions of caffeine have been observed, but it is not entirely clear how each contributes to its pharmacological profile. Among the most important are inhibition of cyclic nucleotide PHOSPHODIESTERASES, antagonism of ADENOSINE RECEPTORS, and modulation of intracellular calcium handling. 1,3,7-Trimethylxanthine,Caffedrine,Coffeinum N,Coffeinum Purrum,Dexitac,Durvitan,No Doz,Percoffedrinol N,Percutaféine,Quick-Pep,Vivarin,Quick Pep,QuickPep
D002849 Chromatography, Gas Fractionation of a vaporized sample as a consequence of partition between a mobile gaseous phase and a stationary phase held in a column. Two types are gas-solid chromatography, where the fixed phase is a solid, and gas-liquid, in which the stationary phase is a nonvolatile liquid supported on an inert solid matrix.
