Overview

A sensitive evidence of trace concentrations of benzodiazepines and their metabolites in urinecan be enabled after special sample preparation including enzymatic hydrolysis, special solidphase extraction, silylation and folowing analysis by gas chromatograhpy with mass spectrometryin electron impact mode. After optimalization of the procedure the extraction recovery values inthe range 50 - 85 % are achieved. The scale of retention times with basic mass spectral data arepresented for the spectrum of silylated benzodiazepines which can overlap some gaps in thestandard toxicological literature up to now available.

Key words:
Benzodiazepine derivates - biotransformation - metabolites, toxicological evidence -GC-MS trace analysis in urine
