Testing hair for drugs of abuse – fourteen years of our experience

Hair analysis for drugs of abuse has become very popular because it provides information on long- term exposure to illegal drugs over a period of few weeks to months, depending on the length of hair collected. Since 1999, we have analysed at the Institute over 1000 hair samples for different drugs of abuse. Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS)methods have been developed for determining opiates (heroin, 6-acetylmorphine (6-MAM), codeine, morphine), methadone, cocaine, and amphetamines [amphetamine, methamphetamine, 3, 4-methylene- dioxyamphetamine (MDA), 3, 4- methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA-Ecstasy), 3, 4-methylenedioxyethylamphetamine (MDEA)] in hair. Hair samples were taken in the Unit (39 %), delivered by mail (20 %) or a third person brought them to the Unit (41 %). Samples were identified only by code in 69 % of cases because subjects, who belong mainly to the younger population, wanted to remain anonymous. In 29 % of hair samples, one or more illegal drugs were detected. Considering single drug uses, the highest percentage of positive hair samples was found for MDMA (Ecstasy) (18 % of all positive samples) and cocaine (18 %), followed by heroin (confi rmed by positive 6-MAM) (11 %) and amphetamine (9 %). Two or more substances from different groups were detected in 17 % of positive hair samples. The most frequent combinations were amphetamines with cocaine (6 % of all positive samples) and opiates with cocaine (3 %). Our experience has shown that interest in hair testing for drugs of abuse in Croatia continues to increase.
