Summary

Anileridine and pethidine were established by gas and thin layer chromatography and mass spectroscopy. In the mass spectrum the main peak of anileridine is found at m/e 246 and that of pethidine at m/e 71. The determination was made by gas chromatography from the blood, urine, liver, muscle and stomach contents.

Zusammenfassung

Anileridin und Pethidin wurden mittels Gas- und Dünnschicht-chromatographie sowie massenspektroskopisch festgestellt. Im Massenspektrum liegen die Hauptspitze von Anileridin bei m/e 246 und diejenige von Pethidin bei m/e 71. Die Bestimmung erfolgte gaschromatographisch aus Blut, Harn, Leber, Muskel und Mageninhalt.
