In response to the ongoing synthetic drug epidemic, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) awarded a contract with the University of California at San Francisco (UCSF) to analyze biological samples generated from overdose victims of synthetic drugs. In many cases, it can be difficult to ascertain the specific substance responsible for the overdose. The goal of DEA TOX is to connect symptom causation to the abuse of newly emerging synthetic drugs (e.g. synthetic cannabinoids, synthetic cathinones, fentanyl-related substances, other hallucinogens, etc.).

Clin Toxicol 2017; online early: doi: 10.1080/ 15563650.2017.1379603: Introduction Head hair analysis for drugs and drug metabolites has been used widely with the aim of detecting exposure in the weeks or months prior to sample collection. However, inappropriate interpretation of results has likely led to serious miscarriages of justice, especially in child custody cases. Objective The aim of this review is to assess critically what can, and perhaps more importantly, what cannot be claimed as regards the interpretation of hair test results in a given set of circumstances in order to inform future testing. Methods We searched the PubMed database for papers published 2010-2016 using the terms "hair" and "drug" and "decontamination", the terms "hair" and "drug" and "contamination", the terms "hair" and "drug-facilitated crime", the terms "hair" and "ethyl glucuronide", and the Current Awareness in Clinical Toxicology is produced monthly for the American Academy of Clinical Toxicology by the Birmingham Unit of the UK National Poisons Information Service, with contributions from the Cardiff, Edinburgh, and Newcastle Units.

These drugs were originally conceived as “legal” alternatives to traditional illicit drugs, designed to mimic their effects and circumvent control agencies. Reference methods for determining these substances on blotter papers are based on chromatographic techniques using mass spectrometry detection. However, these procedures are destructive, expensive, and time consuming. Some compounds are also thermolabile and not suitable for regular gas chromatography analyses. In this paper, two multivariate models were presented and incorporated in the routine of a forensic laboratory as a screening method. They were developed and validated using a representative dataset of 158 seizures analyzed by attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) and a partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) model. The first model (model A) discriminates between samples with and without different types of drugs, and the second one (model B) discriminates between samples containing NBOMe and NBOH, two N-benzyl 2,5-dimethoxy substituted phenethylamine commonly incorporated into blotter papers.

  • New Psychoactive Substances in Australia
    NEW PSYCHOACTIVE SUBSTANCES IN AUSTRALIA Rachel Sutherland BSocSc (Hons, Criminology) A thesis in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy National Drug and Alcohol Research Centre School of Public Health and Community Medicine Faculty of Medicine University of New South Wales November 2018 i THESIS/DISSERTATION SHEET Surname/Family Name Sutherland Given Name/s Rachel Anne Abbreviation for degree as give in the University calendar PhD Faculty Medicine School School of Public Health and Community Medicine Thesis Title New psychoactive substances in Australia Abstract 350 words maximum: (PLEASE TYPE) Over the past decade, countries worldwide have observed the rapid emergence of substances collectively referred to as ‘new psychoactive substances’ (NPS). To date, hundreds of NPS have been identified; however, for the most part very little is known about these substances. The exponential growth of NPS, combined with uncertainty regarding potential harms, has generated considerable concern amongst policy makers and there is international consensus regarding the need for ongoing monitoring and research into the NPS market. However, much of the research conducted in this area originates from Europe and the United States, with Australian-specific studies relatively scarce. This thesis aimed to address this gap in Australian specific studies using two data sources: the 2013 National Drug Strategy Household Survey (NDSHS: a general population prevalence survey) and the Ecstasy and related Drugs Reporting System (EDRS: a national survey of high frequency psychostimulant consumers). Specifically, this thesis aimed to: 1) determine if there was a distinct group of exclusive Australian NPS consumers; 2) examine rates of use of different classes of NPS amongst people who use other illicit substances; 3) examine the motivations associated with NPS use; and 4) explore the purchasing and supply patterns of NPS consumers.
