Resumo

A simple and rapid method for the determination of methadone and its main metabolite EDDP in hair has been developed and validated. The analytes were completely extracted from the matrix after a short alkaline incubation, and the extracts were further cleaned up by solid-phase extraction using mixed-mode cartridges. Linearity was obtained from 0.1 (lower limit of quantitation, LLOQ) to 30-ng/mg for both compounds, with correlation coefficients higher than 0.99. Intra- and interday precision and accuracy were in conformity with internationally accepted guidelines for bioanalytical method validation, and the cleanup procedure presented mean extraction efficiencies higher than 90% for both analytes. This high efficiency greatly contributed to the low limits of quantitation achieved, and therefore this method can be successfully applied in the determination of methadone and EDDP in hair samples in clinical and forensic scenarios where these compounds are involved.
