Desalkylgidazepam Blood Concentrations in 63 Forensic Investigation Cases.
Journal of Analytical Toxicology 2023 September 13
Desalkylgidazepam, also known as bromonordiazepam, is the latest designer benzodiazepine to appear in postmortem blood samples in British Columbia. Our laboratory was first alerted to the presence of desalkylgidazepam in seized drug samples in May 2022 and the analyte was added to an in-house library shortly thereafter. Previously acquired spectra from routine death investigation cases were reprocessed using the updated library with the first presumptive identification of desalkylgidazepam occurring in a sample received in April 2022. A standard addition method for the quantitation of desalkylgidazepam in blood samples (from femoral, iliac, jugular and subclavian veins) was validated and consequently used to confirm presence and concentrations of the drug in 63 cases, with an average concentration of 42.2 ± 44.0 ng/mL (median concentration: 24.5 ng/mL; range: 3.7 - 220.6 ng/mL). Similar to detections of other novel benzodiazepines, co-occurrence of desalkylgidazepam with opioids and/or stimulants was common. To our knowledge, this paper is the first to report desalkylgidazepam concentrations in postmortem blood samples.
