REFERENCE CHROMATOGRAMS AND<br />

PEAK IDENTIFICATION TABLES<br />

Figure I. Capillary gas chromatograms <strong>of</strong> illicit <strong>heroin</strong> samples<br />

(Top = uncut <strong>heroin</strong> sample; bottom = cut <strong>heroin</strong> sample)<br />

63<br />

Peaks:<br />

1 = nicotinamide-TMS<br />

2 = meconin<br />

3 = caffeine<br />

4 = glucose-TMS<br />

5 = phenobarbital-TMS<br />

6 = methaqualone<br />

7 = acetylcodeine<br />

8 = acetylthebaol<br />

9 = morphine-TMS<br />

10 = 6-O-acetylmorphine-TMS<br />

11 = diacetylmorphine<br />

12 = papaverine<br />

13 = phenolphthalein-TMS<br />

14 = narcotine<br />

S = n-tetracosane<br />

(internal st<strong>and</strong>ard)<br />

Note: TMS =<br />

trimethylsilyl derivative.<br />

carrier gas 0.7 bar hydrogen, split 20 ml/min; make-up gas 18 ml argon/min; oven<br />

temperature programme 150° C to 280° C at 9° C/min, then 0.5 min isothermal; <strong>and</strong> injector/detector<br />

(FID) temperatures 250° C/280° C.<br />
