- As the incidence of drugs escalates in 21st century living, their detection and analysis have become increasingly important. Sport, the workplace, crime investigation, homeland security, the pharmaceutical industry and the environment are just some of the high profile arenas in which analytical testing has provided an important investigative tool for uncovering the presence of extraneous substances. In addition to the usual publishing fare of primary research articles, case reports and letters, Drug Testing and Analysis offers a unique combination of; ‘How to’ material such as ‘Tutorials’ and ‘Reviews’, Speculative pieces (‘Commentaries’ and ‘Perspectives', providing a broader scientific and social context to the aspects of analytical testing), ‘Annual banned substance reviews’ (delivering a critical evaluation of the methods used in the characterization of established and newly outlawed compounds). Rather than focus on the application of a single technique, Drug Testing and Analysis employs a unique multidisciplinary approach to the field of controversial compound determination. Papers discussing chromatography, mass spectrometry, immunological approaches, 1D/2D gel electrophoresis, to name just a few select methods, are welcomed where their application is related to any of the six key topics listed below. Features and Coverage The journal will focus on six key topics /// Sports doping /// Illicit/recreational drugs use e.g. drug-testing methods by employers /// Pharmaceuticals e.g. pharmacokinetics, metabolism studies, characterization anddetection of new therapeutics, natural products, biosimilarsand generics /// Toxico-pathology e.g. determining posthumous drug presence /// Forensics/homeland security e.g. determining the presence of controlled substances at acrime scene or use by perpetrators, analysis of compounds withpotential use as biological or chemical warfareagents /// Environment e.g. wastewater analysis, determination ofpollutants/contaminants, etc.
