Transportable time-of-flight mass spectrometry of illicit drugs using dielectric barrier discharge ionization and acetone-assisted vacuum ultraviolet photoionization

Published by National Institute of Standards and Technology | National Institute of Standards and Technology | Catalog Last Checked: August 02, 2025 at 03:48 PM | Dataset Last Updated: October 07, 2024
This data publication contains the raw, extracted, and derived (e.g., peak areas) mass spectrometry data for illicit drug and mixture samples. These samples were analyzed by wipe-based collection or solvent-extraction, thermal desorption, and a transportable high-resolution time-of-flight mass spectrometer. Data were collected with both an in-line dielectric barrier discharge ionization source and an acetone-dopoant assisted vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) photoionization source. Samples include a range of single-component drugs (e.g., Alprazolam, Cocaine, Fentanyl, Methamphetamine, Heroin), a 15-component drug mixture, and samples collected from used drug paraphernalia at harm reduction sites.
