Abstract
Buprenorphine is one of the most commonly used pain-killing drugs due to its lengthy duration of action and high potency. However, excessive usage of buprenorphine can be harmful to one's health and prolonged use might result in addiction. Additionally, an increasing number of cases have been documented involving the illegal use of buprenorphine. Therefore, a variety of effective and reliable methods for pretreatment and determination of buprenorphine and its main metabolite norbuprenorphine have been established. This review aims to update the current state of pretreatment and detection techniques for buprenorphine and norbuprenorphine from January 2010 to March 2022. Pretreatment methods include several traditional extraction methods, solid-phase extraction, QuECHERS, various micro-extraction techniques, etc. while analytical methods include LC-MS, LC coupled with other detectors, GC-MS, capillary electrophoresis, electrochemical sensors, etc. The pros and cons of various techniques were compared and summarized, and the prospects were provided. HIGHLIGHTSProgress in pretreatment and detection methods for buprenorphine is demonstrated.Pros and cons of different pretreatment and analysis methods are compared.New materials (such as nanomaterials and magnetic materials) used in buprenorphine pretreatment are summarized.Newly emerged environmental-friendly methods are discussed.

Nahar KL, Murphy K, Paterson S. Toxicological Relevance of Pregabalin in Heroin Users: A Two-Year Post-Mortem Population Study. J Anal Toxicol 2021; 46:471-478. [PMID: 34114622 PMCID: PMC9122506 DOI: 10.1093/jat/bkab070] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2021] [Revised: 06/03/2021] [Accepted: 11/15/2021] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Pregabalin (PGL) is a gabapentinoid used to treat epilepsy, neuropathic pain and generalized anxiety disorder. PGL is also misused by heroin users as it enhances the effects of heroin. While it is thought those who misuse PGL take it in amounts greater than the recommended therapeutic dose, it is unknown whether there is a significant difference between the amounts of PGL used by heroin users compared to non-heroin users. This study hypothesised that the PGL concentrations in post-mortem samples taken from heroin users positive for PGL would be higher than those in non-heroin users. Between 01.01.2016 and 31.12.2017, a routine drugs screen and a specific screen for PGL was carried out on femoral-vein bloods from 3,750 post-mortem Coroners' cases. Of the cases screened, 354 were heroin users, of which 264 cases were negative for gabapentinoids and therefore used as the control-heroin users group. PGL was positive in 229 cases, of which 69 were heroin users and 160 were non-heroin users. On comparing the PGL concentrations, statistically higher concentrations were observed in the heroin users compared to non-heroin users (P = 0.002). There was no correlation between the concentrations of PGL and morphine (from heroin) in the heroin users (P = 0.95), and the amount of heroin (morphine) consumed was not dependant on whether PGL was consumed or not (P = 0.98). The prevalence of anti-depressants, benzodiazepines, methadone and non-heroin related opioids were seen to be significantly higher in heroin users that were positive for PGL than the control-heroin users (P = < 0.001 for all drugs). This study suggests that heroin users are using greater amounts of PGL compared to non-heroin users; however, the magnitude of the difference in use may not be sufficient to conclude that heroin users are at substantially greater risk of pregabalin toxicity compared to non-heroin users. Results indicate that heroin users who take PGL are more likely to use multiple depressant drugs, hence increasing the risk of multi-drug toxicity and death in this population.

Abstract
Mass spectrometry has been the "gold standard" for drugs of abuse (DoA) analysis for many decades because of the selectivity and sensitivity it affords. Recent progress in all aspects of mass spectrometry has seen significant developments in the field of DoA analysis. Mass spectrometry is particularly well suited to address the rapidly proliferating number of very high potency, novel psychoactive substances that are causing an alarming number of fatalities worldwide. This review surveys advancements in the areas of sample preparation, gas and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, as well as the rapidly emerging field of ambient ionization mass spectrometry. We have predominantly targeted literature progress over the past ten years and present our outlook for the future. © 2020 Periodicals, Inc. Mass Spec Rev.

Abstract
In this work, various types of metal-organic frameworks were synthesized, and their affinities toward buprenorphine were evaluated using dispersive solid-phase extraction. The extracted buprenorphine was determined by ultra high performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet detection system. The highest extraction recovery was observed by employing zeolitic imidazole framework-67. Then, a facile and fast extraction method was designed for the extraction and purification of the target drug. Optimization of the extraction method was carried out by the design of experiment approach. A linearity range of 1-1000 μg/L with the limit of detection of 0.15 μg/L and relative standard deviations (50 μg/L, n = 5) of 3.4% was obtained for standard sample analysis. Under optimized experimental and instrumental conditions, the relative recoveries were in the range of 95 to 111%. Eventually, zeolitic imidazole framework-67 was successfully employed for the extraction and determination of buprenorphine in the biological fluids with satisfactory results.
