Description

Application

Derivatization reagent used in a GC-MS analysis of stereoisomer content of synthetic peptides. Also used in a GC-MS detection method for synephrine in dietary supplements.

Pentafluoropropionic anhydride (PFPA) was used as derivatization reagent for urine samples to determine the presence of codeine, morphine, 6-monoacetylmorphine, ethylmorphine, and dihydrocodeine using GC-MS in selected ion monitoring (SIM) mode. It was also used to derivatize the dry pericardial fluid sample extracts for quantification of cocaine, benzoylecgonine, and cocaethylene in pericardial fluid using GC-MS.
