Summary

AI-generated from the abstract

The efficiency of extracting LSD from impregnated papers depends on the extraction method, temperature, time, and solvent. Using the Plackett-Burman design, the optimal conditions for maximal LSD recovery were determined. Quantitative analysis was performed with reversed-phase ion-pair chromatography and UV detection. The extraction procedure's constant and proportional bias were also characterized.

Abstract

Abstract The effect of different parameters (extraction method, temperature, time, solvent) on the extraction efficiency of LSD from impregnated papers has been investigated. Designed experiments have been applied according to the Plackett-Burman method. For the quantitative determination of LSD reversed phase ion-pair chromatography has been used with UV detection. The experimental conditions assuring maximal LSD recovery have been determined, as well as the constant and proportional bias of the extraction procedure elaborated.
