Quality Control in Blood Alcohol Analysis: Simultaneous Quantitation and Confirmation

Abstract: Using a single-injection, dual capillary column, headspace gas chromatography (HS/GC) technique, simultaneous quantitation and confirmation of routine blood alcohol analysis are described. Quality control procedures utilized in sample preparation and analysis, as well as HS/GC methodology, are delineated. A comparison is made between the results of a conventional packed column HS/GC method and the dual capillary column HS/GC method using a decomposed blood sample.

“…Blood sample sizes used for headspace gas chromatography tend to be between 50 and 500 µl [15,16,31,32]. Eighteen-gauge tubing is appropriate for liquid blood samples in this volume range regardless of their viscosity.…”

“…The KIMS method was used on an Integra (Roche Diagnostics, Laval, QC) instrument to screen the urine for benzoylecgonine, opiates, and cannabinoids, whereas the CEDIA (Microgenics, Freemont, CA) method on a Modular (Roche) instrument was use to screen for benzodiazepines. A modified dual column method, described by Brown and Long (5), was used to screen and quantitate samples for alcohols by static headspace gas chromatography.…”
