Abstract: Objective To establish an analytical method for the determination of GHB in beverages using GC/MS and LC/MS/MS.Methods After beverage samples with GHB-d6 as the internal standard were extracted with ethyl acetate,then the extracts were derivatized with N,O-bis(trimethylsilyl) trifluoroacetamide(BSTFA) ,at last the derivateized extracts analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry.After beverage samples with GHB-d6 as the internal standard were diluted by mobile phase then directly analyzed by LC/MS/MS.Results The limit of detection was 0.2 μg/mL and both relative standard deviations for between-day and within-day assays were < 8.54% in GC/MS.The limit of detection was 2 μg/mL and both relative standard deviations for between-day and within-day assays were <8.62% in LC/MS/MS.Conclusion These methods of qualitative and quantitative analysis were found to be sensitive,accurate,rapid and suitable for the forensic toxicology to test of GHB in real cases.
