✦ Synopsis

The use of an ion trap mass spectrometer for the detection, via tandem mass spectrometry, of morphine and cocaine in the hair of drug addicts proved to be successful. In particular, detection limits of 1-20 ppb for morphine and 5-30 ppb for cocaine were achieved, with good reproducibility and absence of interferent species.
