An Investigation Into the Yields of 3,4‐Methylenedioxyphenyl‐2‐propanone (MDP2P) From Glycidate Pre‐Precursors

Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
Hydrolysis of the glycidate pre‐precursors MMDMG and EMDMG was evaluated for MDP2P production. Acid hydrolysis of MMDMG (HCl, 100°C, 18 h) yielded the highest MDP2P recovery (79%), whereas base hydrolysis produced only slightly lower yields (73%), demonstrating both pathways are effective routes to this key MDMA precursor.

Population Pharmacokinetics and Detection Times of Betamethasone After Intravenous, Intramuscular, and Intranasal Jet Administration of Betamethasone Sodium Phosphate in Horses

Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
Betamethasone concentrations in 20 horses from Japan and Germany following IV, IM, and INJ administration of betamethasone phosphate were analyzed using population pharmacokinetic modeling. For IV administration of 0.04 mg/kg q24 h, IPC and IUC were 0.012 and 0.31 ng/mL, respectively; the IUC approximated the IFHA urine ISL (0.20 ng/mL).

Simultaneous Detection of Steroid Esters and Multi‐Class Substances in Dried Blood Spots by LC‐HRMS/MS From a Single Spot for Human Doping Control

Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
A validated LC‐HRMS/MS method enabled, for the first time, the comprehensive detection of steroid esters and multi‐class menu substances from a single dried blood spot. Following extraction, the resulting extract is split into two aliquots, reducing sample consumption and simplifying the analytical workflow.

Estimating Illicit Stimulant Drug Consumption in Luxembourg Using Wastewater‐Based Epidemiology

Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
Wastewater‐based epidemiology provided nationwide estimates of illicit stimulant consumption in Luxembourg, revealing higher urban use, weekend increases in cocaine and MDMA, and cocaine as the dominant stimulant. The approach offers an objective complement to conventional drug surveillance for informing public health and policy.
