Newest firstThe rapid emergence of synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonists (SCRAs) poses challenges for drug testing, particularly when analyzing urine samples due to the rapid metabolization of the parent compounds. In early 2023, two novel SCRAs were reported to the European Union Drugs Agency (EUDA): ADMB-3TMS-PrINACA and Cumyl-3TMS-PrINACA, which are both indazole SCRAs featuring a trimethylsilyl propyl moiety connected t…
Open article record in new tab ↗Background The potent synthetic cannabinoid ADB-BUTINACA (also known as ADB-BINACA) was implicated in three fatal intoxications. Post-mortem samples, including femoral and heart blood, urine, gastric content, bile, vitreous humor, cerebrospinal fluid, and various tissues (brain, kidney, liver, lung, muscle), were analyzed. All cases were mixed intoxications with pregabalin, heroin, ketamine, MDPHP, or ethanol. Met…
Purpose A powder found at a fatality scene, labeled as the synthetic cathinone 3',4'-methylenedioxy-α-pyrrolidinohexiophenone (MDPHP) and most likely smoked using a crack pipe, was analyzed. The powder was identified as very potent synthetic cannabinoid ADB-BUTINACA/ADB-BINACA with a high purity (> 98%). This case highlights the risks associated with mislabeled novel psychoactive substances (NPS), particularly tho…
Forensic entomologists estimate minimum post-mortem intervals (PMImin) by measuring the development of larvae on decomposing bodies. Entomotoxicology assumes significance when the deceased had ingested drugs, as these may alter insect development and consequently the accuracy of PMImin estimations. 5F-ADB, ADB-BUTINACA, and MDMB-4en-PINACA are potent synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonists and drugs of abuse, link…
