  • Title: The separation and quantitation of the narcotic components of illicit heroin using reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography.
    Author: Baker PB, Gough TA.
    Journal: J Chromatogr Sci; 1981 Oct; 19(10):483-9. PubMed ID: 7320184.
    Abstract:
    The separation of heroin from other narcotic components of illicit preparations is achieved by high performance liquid chromatography. Using an aminopropyl bonded silica packing and a mixture of 85% acetonitrile and 15% 0.005 M tetrabutylammonium phosphate as the mobile phase, caffeine, heroin, acetylcodeine, 6-acetylmorphine, codeine, and morphine are separated from each other and are accurately quantified. Papaverine, noscapine, thebaine, and strychnine are also separated from these principal components.
