General description

This certified reference standard is suitable for a variety of LC/MS or GC/MS applications from forensic analysis and clinical toxicology to urine drug testing.

Benzoylecgonine is the primary metabolite of cocaine and a major biomarker for the determination of cocaine use. Benzoylecgonine is also the main pharmaceutical ingredient in the prescription drug Esterom, a topical analgesic used for the relief of muscle pain.

Application

The certified reference solution (CRM) in solution can also be used as follows:
  • Development and validation of a high-performance liquid chromatography-diode array detector (HPLC-DAD) based method to determine cocaine, its two main degradation products, and the common adulterants found in cocaine-based products from 115 seized samples
  • Analysis of benzoylecgonine in human urine samples using a monolithic molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) for the solid phase microextraction (SPME) followed by UV detection
  • Separation and determination of cocaine and its metabolites― benzoylecgonine, ecgonine methyl ester, and cocaethylene in hair samples by hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HILIC-MS/MS)
  • Estimation of cocaine, benzoylecgonine, cocaethylene, ecgonine methyl ester (EME), and norcocaine in dried blood spots (DBS) by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS)
  • Multi-residue analysis of xylazine, free morphine, 6-acetylmorphine, codeine, cocaine, and benzoylecgonine in post-mortem blood samples by ultra-high-pressure liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization (UPLC-ESI) and triple-quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry

Features and Benefits

  • Fully characterized under ISO/IEC 17025 and ISO 17034 accreditation
  • Accompanied with a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (CoA) with data on stability, homogeneity, accuracy of concentration, uncertainty, and traceability
  • Rigorously tested through real-time stability studies to ensure accuracy and shelf life
  • Gravimetrically prepared using qualified precision balances to ensure minimal uncertainty
  • Flame sealed under argon into ampoules for long-term shelf life
  • Offered in a convenient, DEA-exempt format to improve laboratory efficiency
