2014/1-BS 2 Copyright (c) 2014 UNODC Introduction

An important element of the UNODC International Quality Assurance Programme (IQAP) is the implementation of the International Collaborative Exercises (ICE). The exercises allow laboratories, from both developing and developed countries, to continuously monitor their performance in drug testing on a truly global scale. This report provides information on analytical results of laboratories participating in the Seized Materials (SM) group. In order to maintain confidentiality, the participating laboratories have been assigned random “Web Codes”, which change every round. Two rounds are offered per year with each round presenting participants with four different test samples for analysis. The analytical results returned by laboratories participating in ICE are evaluated by UNODC and a confidential report is provided to each laboratory on its own performance. The overall analytical results are reviewed by the UNODC’s International Panel of Forensic Experts which oversees the implementation of these exercises, and offers guidance and support in addressing relevant quality issues. The exercises provide an overview of the performance and capacity of participating laboratories and enable UNODC to tailor technical support in the laboratory sector for greatest impact.

Revision of calculation of z-scores in ICE

Following a recommendation from the International Panel of Forensic Experts and in order to allow ICE participants to interpret their z-scores in line with recommendations in ISO 13528:2005 and ISO/IEC guide 43-1:1997(E), UNODC have introduced an revision to the method used to calculate the z-scores. z-score is a statistical parameter used in proficiency tests and collaborative exercises as a measure of performance in quantitative analysis. They are calculated as:

z = (x-X)/ σ̂ where x = result of participant, X = assigned value of component being quantified and σ̂ is the standard deviation for proficiency assessment (SDPA).

One of the methods recommended in ISO 13528:2005 for determining the assigned value X is to use the consensus value from participants. Using this method, the SDPA is also calculated from the standard deviation of the results of participants. Initial estimates of X and σ known as x* and s* are calculated as:

x* = median of xi (i = 1,2,……p) where p = number of participants s* = 1.483 median of │xi-x*│

Using these estimates, an iterative calculation (for details see ISO13528:2005, Annex C) is carried out to determine the final values of the robust average (x*) and robust standard deviation (s*) and the z-scores are calculated as z = (xi-x*)/s*

Consequently z-scores can be interpreted by participants in line with ISO 13528:2005, section 7.4.2 and ISO/IEC guide43-1:1997(E) as follows:

|z| < 2 = satisfactory 2 ≤ |z| ≤ 3 = questionable |z| > 3 = unsatisfactory

According to the recommendations in ISO 13528:2005, an unsatisfactory z-score is considered to give an action signal and a questionable z-score is considered to give a warning signal. A single action signal or warning signals in two successive rounds shall be taken that an anomaly has occurred that requires investigation. UNODC would like to acknowledge the valuable contribution of the Chemical Metrology Laboratory of the Health Sciences Authority, Singapore, for the provision of specific software used for the quantitative statistical calculations in the ICE programme

Comments from the International Panel of Forensic Experts

Participation of Laboratories

In the 2014/1 round of the ICE programme, results were submitted within both the Seized Materials (SM) and Biological Specimens (BS) test groups by 182 laboratories in 59 countries. Within the SM test group, there were 151 participating laboratories from 57 countries, representing a 16% increase from the 2013/2 round. Within the BS test group, results were submitted by 72 laboratories from 38 countries, also corresponding to an increase of 16 % in the number of participants compared to the previous round.

Qualitative Analysis

The most commonly used technique for screening of test samples in the SM test group was the marquis reagent (42% of participants), while GC-MS (89%) was the most commonly used technique for identification/confirmation followed by FTIR (37%). The results for the qualitative identification of the controlled substances were excellent for all test samples in the SM group. 93% and 98% of participants correctly identified the 1-(3-chlorophenyl) and metamfetamine in SM-1 and SM-2 respectively. It is encouraging to note that 93% of participants identified the 1-(3-chlorophenyl)piperazine (94% identified this substance in 2013/2), indicating a continued excellent level of awareness of participants in the identification of this New Psychoactive Substance (NPS). 97% of participants correctly identified the in SM-3, an increase from 92% who correctly identified ketamine, when this was last used as a test sample in 2011/2. Finally, 99% of participants identified the cocaine in SM-4.

8 false positive results were reported for the four test samples in the SM group and there were only 7 false negative results. The detection limits of the different analytical techniques were taken into consideration when ascribing false positive results and as such laboratories who detected the trace amounts of Morphine and Codeine in SM-1 need not consider their results as false positives.

Quantitative Analysis

The proportion of participants who carried out quantitative analysis, 48 (32%) for SM-1, 83 (55%) for SM-2, 69 (46%) for SM-3 and 107 (71%) for SM-4 continues to be encouraging, particularly the high percentage of participants who quantified the cocaine in SM-4. 1-(3-chlorophenyl)piperazine is a relatively new substance In the ICE menu and there was a 5% increase in the number of laboratories who performed quantitative analysis for this drug compared to the previous round. It is also encouraging to note that 111 (74%) of participants in the SM test group performed quantitation. Of these, 38% quantified all test samples and 78% of laboratories quantified at least two of the 4 test samples. It is understood that quantitative analysis of controlled substances is often governed by local legislation and the requirements of prosecution. With regard to the analytical techniques used by participants performing quantitation, 50% used GC-FID, 24% used HPLC and 19% used GC-MS

Analysis of the z-scores showed that 94% of participants provided acceptable quantitative results with |z| < 3 for 1-(3-chlorophenyl)piperazine in SM-1, 89% for metamphetamine in SM-2, 87% for ketamine in SM-3 and 87% for cocaine in SM-4. Laboratories are encouraged to carry out quantification as it can improve the quality of laboratory analyses and can be helpful in assessing the significance of the results. z-score values obtained assist participating laboratories in evaluating their performance and should be monitored over time as part of each laboratory’s quality assurance programme. Participants with z-scores outside acceptable limits should review their quantification procedures. Laboratories reporting false positive or false negative results should investigate the reasons for this and corrective actions should be taken in order to continuously improve performance. Participation in the ICE programme also helps in monitoring the effect of corrective actions.

11 Introduction

An important element of the UNODC International Quality Assurance Programme (IQAP) is the implementation of the International Collaborative Exercises (ICE). The exercises allow laboratories, from both developing and developed countries, to continuously monitor their performance in drug testing on a truly global scale. This report provides information on analytical results of laboratories participating in the Seized Materials (SM) group. In order to maintain confidentiality, the participating laboratories have been assigned random “Web Codes”, which change every round. Two rounds are offered per year with each round presenting participants with four different test samples for analysis. The analytical results returned by laboratories participating in ICE are evaluated by UNODC and a confidential report is provided to each laboratory on its own performance. The overall analytical results are reviewed by the UNODC’s International Panel of Forensic Experts which oversees the implementation of these exercises, and offers guidance and support in addressing relevant quality issues. The exercises provide an overview of the performance and capacity of participating laboratories and enable UNODC to tailor technical support in the laboratory sector for greatest impact.

Revision of calculation of z-scores in ICE

Following a recommendation from the International Panel of Forensic Experts and in order to allow ICE participants to interpret their z-scores in line with recommendations in ISO 13528:2005 and ISO/IEC guide 43-1:1997(E), UNODC have introduced an revision to the method used to calculate the z-scores. z-score is a statistical parameter used in proficiency tests and collaborative exercises as a measure of performance in quantitative analysis. They are calculated as:

z = (x-X)/ σ̂ where x = result of participant, X = assigned value of component being quantified and σ̂ is the standard deviation for proficiency assessment (SDPA).

One of the methods recommended in ISO 13528:2005 for determining the assigned value X is to use the consensus value from participants. Using this method, the SDPA is also calculated from the standard deviation of the results of participants. Initial estimates of X and σ known as x* and s* are calculated as:

x* = median of xi (i = 1,2,……p) where p = number of participants s* = 1.483 median of │xi-x*│

Using these estimates, an iterative calculation (for details see ISO13528:2005, Annex C) is carried out to determine the final values of the robust average (x*) and robust standard deviation (s*) and the z-scores are calculated as z = (xi-x*)/s*

Consequently z-scores can be interpreted by participants in line with ISO 13528:2005, section 7.4.2 and ISO/IEC guide43-1:1997(E) as follows:

|z| < 2 = satisfactory 2 ≤ |z| ≤ 3 = questionable |z| > 3 = unsatisfactory

According to the recommendations in ISO 13528:2005, an unsatisfactory z-score is considered to give an action signal and a questionable z-score is considered to give a warning signal. A single action signal or warning signals in two successive rounds shall be taken that an anomaly has occurred that requires investigation.

12 Comments from the International Panel of Forensic Experts

Participation of Laboratories

In the 2014/1 round of the ICE programme, results were submitted within both the Seized materials (SM) and Biological Specimens (BS) test groups by 182 laboratories in 59 countries. Within the SM test group, there were 151 participating laboratories from 57 countries, representing a 16% increase from the 2013/2 round. Within the BS test group, results were submitted by 72 laboratories from 38 countries, also corresponding to an increase of 16 % in the number of participants compared to the previous round.

Qualitative analysis

Overall, the level of performance in identification of the test samples was good given the inherently higher level of difficulty in the analysis of biological specimens compared to seized materials due to their low concentration and multi-component composition. The complexity of the test samples in ICE 2014/1 was designed in order to challenge the participants. Overall, within the BS test group, the most common technique used by participants for the screening of test samples were enzyme immunoassay techniques (56% of labs), while GC/MS was used by 85% of participants for identification followed by LC/MS which was used by 18% of participating laboratories. BS-1 contained cocaine and the two metabolites, benzoylecgonine and methylecgonine, which were identified by 86%, 79% and 65% of participants respectively. There was only one false positive result and while there were 15 false negatives and a total of 35 analyses not performed, it is recognised that some laboratories identify the use of cocaine based solely on identification of the parent drug or one of its metabolites. BS-2 also contained multiple components and the morphine, codeine and 6- monoacetylmorphine present were identified by 86%, 85% and 86% of participants respectively. In this test sample 4 false positives for morphine-glucuronides were reported and there were 13 false negative results and 19 analyses not performed. The 11-nor-delta9-THC-9-carboxylic acid in BS-3 was identified by 89% of participants. There were no false positive results, only one false negative result and seven laboratories did not carry out analysis for 11-nor-delta9-THC-9-carboxylic acid in this test sample. For the second round in succession, 2C-B, a newly introduced substance in the biological specimens ICE menu was included as a test sample. The 2C-B was identified by 49 % of participants, a figure comparable to the 50% who identified this substance in the 2013/2 round of ICE. There were no false positive results reported, seven false negatives and 30 laboratories did not carry out analysis for 2C-B in this test sample.

Quantitative analysis

The four test samples in the BS test group for the 2014/1 round of ICE contained a total of 8 components. 31 (43%) of participating laboratories performed quantitation. Of these laboratories, 78 % quantified at least two components and 16% quantified all the components in the test samples. GC-MS was used by 65% of participants for quantification followed by LC/MS which was used by 22% of participants. The results for quantitative analysis within the BS test group were excellent. For BS-1, 92% of laboratories obtained acceptable quantitative results with |z| <3 for methylecgonine. Acceptable z-scores were obtained for benzoylecgonine and cocaine by 95% and 81% of laboratories respectively. Within BS-2, 100% of labs who quantified 6-monoacetylmorphine, 92% who quantified codeine and 75% who quantified the morphine obtained acceptable z-scores. 96% of labs obtained acceptable z-scores for the 11-nor-delta9-THC-9- carboxylic acid in BS-3 and while only 9 labs quantified the 2C-B in BS-4, 100% obtained acceptable z- scores. The results of ICE participants for the quantitative analysis of the morphine present in BS-2 show considerable variability. This could in part be explained by the pH dependent hydrolysis of some of the 6-MAM also present in the test sample during the course of analyte extraction/enrichment. UNODC are investigating this issue, will contact ICE participants and provide feedback in due course.

Laboratories are encouraged to carry out quantification as it can improve the quality of laboratory analyses and can be helpful in assessing the significance of the results. z-score values obtained assist participating laboratories in evaluating their performance and should be monitored over time as part of each laboratory’s quality assurance programme. Participants with Z-scores outside acceptable limits should review their quantification procedures. Laboratories reporting false positive or false negative results should investigate the reasons for this and corrective actions should be taken in order to continuously improve performance. Participation in the ICE programme also helps in monitoring the effect of corrective actions.

z-scores can be interpreted by participants in line with ISO 13528:2005, section 7.4.2 and ISO/IEC guide43- 1:1997(E) as follows: |z| < 2 = satisfactory 2 ≤ |z| ≤ 3 = questionable |z| > 3 = unsatisfactory

According to the recommendations in ISO 13528:2005, an unsatisfactory z-score is considered to give an action signal and a questionable z-score is considered to give a warning signal. A single action signal or warning signals in two successive rounds shall be taken that an anomaly has occurred that requires investigation.
