Abstract
Time-of-flight mass spectrometry with bombardment by Cf-252 fission fr agments is a very promising method for the rapid detection of pharmaco logically active and narcotic alkaloids in body fluids. The lowest con centrations of Papaverine, employed as a typical alkaloid, determined in rat blood and urine make up 100 +/- 20 ng. The detection procedure involves a simple two-step cleanup (with a saturated aqueous solution of oxalic acid and chloroform) followed by measuring mass spectra of s olid samples obtained by drying multicomponent biomatrices representin g chloroform extracts from blood or urine on a metal support.
