Description

Description générale

Mephedrone, also known as 4-methylmethcathinone, is a synthetic stimulant of the amphetamine and cathinone classes. Significant abuse of this new recreational drug has been reported within the last year in the UK; Sweden; and Toronto, Canada with confiscation of the drug in states including Oregon.

Application

• Nanotube-based Sensors for Drug Molecule Discrimination: Mephedrone is studied for its interaction with nanotube-based sensors, enhancing the discrimination of drug molecules. This research is critical for developing new technologies in forensic science and drug abuse monitoring, providing high accuracy in identifying psychoactive substances (Algharagholy et al., 2023).


• Environmental Monitoring of New Psychoactive Substances: Analytical methods including mephedrone have been developed for the simultaneous determination of 56 new psychoactive substances in surface water. This application is vital for environmental monitoring and understanding the ecological impact of synthetic cathinones, ensuring water safety and public health (Atasoy Aydin et al., 2023).


• Supramolecular Hosts for In Vivo Sequestration: Research on supramolecular hosts capable of sequestering mephedrone and other stimulants like methamphetamine and fentanyl in vivo, provides significant advancements in therapeutic approaches for drug addiction and overdose treatment. This study paves the way for novel detoxification strategies using chemical sequestrants (Brockett et al., 2023).


• SERS Substrates for Clinical Applications: Mephedrone has been examined in the development of ultrasensitive portable Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) substrates. These substrates are designed for rapid and precise clinical diagnostics, showcasing the potential of mephedrone in enhancing bioanalytical methods (Lin et al., 2023).


• Forensic Differentiation of Isomers: Portable near-infrared spectroscopy has been utilized for the isomeric differentiation of mephedrone among new psychoactive substances. This technology is essential for law enforcement and forensic applications, providing a quick and non-destructive means to distinguish between drug isomers in field conditions (Kranenburg et al., 2022).
