Opioid Quantification via Microsampling Techniques to Assess Opioid Use in Human Laboratory Studies

Opioid quantification via microsampling techniques to assess opioid use in human laboratory studies

Despite progress in neurobiological studies with human subjects, sample availability remains a challenge. Urine samples, widely used for screening, suffer from false-positive results due to immunoassay cross-reactivity. Serum, used for confirmatory testing, offers advantages but faces limitations due to blood collection. Microsamples, with a working volume less than 50 μL, present an ideal strategy for robust quantitative data collection in inve…
