Description
Analysis Note
This method shows heroin and related compounds separated on a Titan C18 column and MS detection. The highest quality LC-MS solvents were used to supply low background interference and low particulate contaminants for robust, trouble-free operation. Cerilliant CRMs provided reliable identification and quantification.
