General description

A Certified Spiking Solution® suitable for use in LC/MS or GC/MS testing applications for forensic analysis, urine drug testing, or clinical toxicology. Cocaine is a tropane alkaloid and illicit drug obtained from the leaves of the coca plant. This popular recreational drug is a powerful stimulant of the central nervous system with appetite suppressant and topical anesthetic properties.

Application


  • High-purity cocaine hydrochloride for scientific research: An innovative analytical method was developed using magnetic nanoparticles for the forensic detection of cocaine and its metabolites in postmortem blood samples, underlining its precision in detecting and quantifying cocaine in complex biological matrices (de Souza Schwarz et al., 2024).

Cocaine is a widely abused drug without an FDA (Food and Drug Administration)-approved medication. It has been recognized that an ideal anti-cocaine medication would accelerate cocaine metabolism producing biologically inactive metabolites via a route similar to the primary cocaine-metabolizing pathway

Presently, there are no FDA-approved medications to treat cocaine addiction. Active vaccination has emerged as one approach to intervene through the rapid sequestering of the circulating drug, thus terminating both psychoactive effects and drug toxicity. Herein, we report our efforts
