Forensic Toxicology Screening Using the ACQUITY UPLC I-Class System with the Xevo TQD

Forensic toxicology laboratories require broad screening techniques that can detect toxicants in highly complex biological matrices, such as ante- and post-mortem specimens. This application note evaluates the utility of the ACQUITY UPLC I-Class System and Xevo TQD for forensic toxicology screening. The applicability of an existing chromatographic method combined with the existing full scan MS and MRM methodologies is also assessed on this new platform.
