SFTA Minimum Recommendations for Tox Analysis of NPS Deaths in France

Article from 2019-08-14


The Société Française de Toxicologie Analytique (SFTA) established new recommendations for carrying out toxicological investigations in the case of deaths involving new psychoactive substances (NPS). When identifying NPS using mass spectrometry chromatography, they have proposed a minimum list of substances and possible metabolites to test for in blood, urine, and hair. This list was based upon common occurrences observed in recent casework. Identification and quantification of NPS requires reliable reference materials. Review the lists below for links to Cayman’s analytical reference standards that correspond to the SFTA minimum list.
