Abstract: The study was to eliminate interference from ephed- rine in the analysis of methamphetamine 。The extractionprocedure for methamphetamine was modified to includean oxidation step (2ml urine specimen was trecimen was treated with 0.5ml of lmol/L phosphate buffer(pH6. 8) and 0.5ml0. 3mol/L sodium periodate). Results showed that ephed-rinecould be oxidized in the presence of periodare ions in-to smaller fragments while leaving methamphetamine in-tact.It is recommended that specimens be treated with sodium periodate prior to extraction in order to eliminateany interference caused by ephedrine.

Key words: Ephedrine, methamphetamine, interference
