Forensic Toxicology

My first, first author paper has been published in Drug Testing and Analysis! Reporting the detection and quantitation of novel benzos in a range of formats seized from Scottish Prisons. Thank you @itsdrmac @CaitlynNorman6 @ProfNNicDaeid for your support! …iencejournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

Have a look into the results of a collaboration between Tox Antwerp University, Tox NICC, and medicolegal section Antwerp. Use of various ethanolmarkers result more reliable determination of an individuals alcohol consumption. doi.org/10.1002/dta.35…

Stay informed on trends in New Psychoactive Substances with the #TIAFT #Toxpod! In today's episode, I'm joined by @mevansbrown (@EMCDDA), Conor Crean (@unodc_lab), and @alexkrotulski (@CFSRE_) to talk about Early Warning Systems and a new class of SCRAs. thetoxpod.buzzsprout.com/227318/9262824…

Hey #forensic #ToxTwitter! I am looking for any and all papers about systematic toxicological analysis/screening methods by high resolution mass spectrometry. All suggestions welcome below, especially your own papers! 😉

New publication on next generation synthetic cannabinoids (including MDMB-4en-PINACA) is now available! Thanks to @christophestove & @AnneliesCan for their work on CB1 in collaboration with @alexkrotulski & @BarryKLoganTox for the analytical toxicology. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.100…

Was a pleasure collaborating with @ForSciResearch's @alexkrotulski & @BarryKLoganTox! Looking forward to future collaborative work! 👇

Should we focus our 6-acetylmorphine testing on vitreous humor 👁️ rather than blood or urine for heroin-related fatalities? This is the question discussed by Nassibou et al. in their most recent Letter to the Editor. bit.ly/2QOcMCE

Following the detection of #isotonitazene in powder and #isotonitazene-related deaths, now also a report on the chemical characterization of #etazene (#etodesnitazene), found in seized powder in Poland. 👉potency < than isotonitazene, but still quite potent (@marthevdp, unpubl.)

Great talk by @itsdrmac talking about trend spotting in the fight against NPS. #tiaft2019 #watersqtof

No. of new #SCRAs reported to @EMCDDA has reduced from peak, but decrease seems to have levelled off. I look forward to seeing the updated infographic in all #NPS-related presentations now 😆

Really interesting and useful presentation on method validation from Marc LeBeau as part of the 2nd Annual Online Symposium: Current Trends in Forensics and #ForensicToxicology from @RTI_Intl.

I made a timeline of #SCRAs in @WEDINOSProject samples over time, from the information included in their PHILTRE bulletins and annual reports. Gives an overview of the waxing and waning of different compounds' popularity.

Honoured and humbled to be nominated for the Lecturer of the Year award in the @UWSstudents Big Awards. Thank you to whomever nominated me, I’m speechless ☺️ Can’t wait to see everybody at the ceremony! @UniWestScotland @uwschemistry @SchoolCEPS

Xylazine, a veterinary drug added to heroin, fentanyl and other drugs, was involved in 56 OD deaths in MD in 2018. Read about xylazine in our January ToxTidbits. bit.ly/XylazineTTB

Abstract submission opens 1st February 2019, have you started thinking about what you'd like to present? #TIAFT2019
