US Patent:
6350582, Feb 26, 2002
Filed:
Feb 7, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/499490
Inventors:
Werner Andreas Baumgartner - Malibu CA
Assignee:
Psychemedics Corporation - Cambridge MA
International Classification:
G01N 3353
US Classification:
435 71, 435 23, 435 24, 435961, 435962, 435265, 435267, 436504, 436542, 436543, 436804, 436816
Abstract:
A method for the direct analysis of the presence of an analyte which becomes embedded in keratinized structures, e. g. , hair, fingernails and toenails, from the bloodstream of a subject which comprises preparing a mixture containing dithiothreitol or dithioerythritol (âDTTâ), an enzyme suitable for the digestion of the keratin structure and a sample of the keratin structure; permitting the enzyme to digest the sample of keratin structure to form a digest solution, followed by the addition of a salt of a metal of copper, zinc, manganese, iron, lead, cadmium, mercury, silver and cobalt to deactivate the DTT; and finally subjecting the digest solution to analysis to determine the presence of the analyte in the keratin structure sample. The protease enzymes papain, chymopapain, and proteinase K are preferred for use in the invention.

US Patent:
6582924, Jun 24, 2003
Filed:
Feb 23, 1995
Appl. No.:
08/393232
Inventors:
Werner A. Baumgartner - Malibu CA
Assignee:
Psychemedics Corporation - Cambridge MA
International Classification:
G01N 3353
US Classification:
435 71, 435 23, 435 24, 435961, 435972, 436512, 436518, 436177, 436175
Abstract:
A method for the direct analysis of analyte in keratinized structures, e. g. , hair, fingernails and toenails, which comprises preparing a mixture containing a low redox potential compound such as dithiothreitol or dithioerythritol, an enzyme suitable for the degradation of the keratin structure and a sample of the keratin structure; permitting the enzyme to at least substantially degrade the sample of keratin structure, filtering the digest solution to remove substances which may interfere with ligand based analytical methods and subjecting the filtered digest solution to analysis to determine the identity and amount of analyte in the keratin substance sample. To accelerate the method, cupric sulfate may be added to the mixture after degradation of the keratin sample. The enzyme may be a peptidase, endopeptidase or proteinase, with papain, chymopapain, and proteinase K being preferred for use in the invention. The filter preferably is of the centrifugal type, characterized by a highly inert and low binding, regeneraged de-acetylated cellulose membrane and capable of removing proteins and peptides having molecular weights in the preferred range of 10,000 to 30,000 or greater.

US Patent:
6949344, Sep 27, 2005
Filed:
Jul 30, 1991
Appl. No.:
07/737703
Inventors:
Werner Andreas Baumgartner - Malibu CA, US
Assignee:
Psychemical Corporation - Action MA
International Classification:
G01N033/53
US Classification:
435 71, 435 23, 435 24, 435265, 435267, 436175, 436177, 436518, 436816, 436825, 436901
Abstract:
A method the direct analysis of an analyte in keratinized structures, e. g. , hair and fingernails, which comprises preparing a mixture containing a low redox potential activator compound such as dithiothreitol or dithioerythritol, an enzyme suitable for the digestion of the keratin structure, a sample of the keratin structure and a biological detergent that aids the digestion of the keratinized structure at a relatively low pH, e. g. , between about 6. 2 and 8; permitting the enzyme to at least substantially digest the sample of keratin structure, and subjecting the digest solution to analysis, preferably by radioimmunoassay, to determine the identity and amount of analyte in the keratin structure sample. To accelerate the method, cupric sulfate may be added to the mixture after degradation of the keratin sample. The enzyme may be a peptidase, endopeptidase or proteinase, with papain, chymopapain, and proteinase K being preferred for use in the invention.

US Patent:
54665795, Nov 14, 1995
Filed:
Feb 3, 1993
Appl. No.:
8/012724
Inventors:
Werner A. Baumgartner - Malibu CA
Assignee:
Psychemedics Corporation - Cambridge MA
International Classification:
G01N 3353
US Classification:
435 71
Abstract:
A method for the direct analysis of analyte indicative of marijuana exposure found in keratinized structures, e. g. , hair, fingernails and toenails, which comprises preparing a mixture containing dithiothreitol or dithioerythritol, a protease suitable for the digestion of the keratin structure and a sample of the keratin structure; permitting the enzyme to at least substantially digest the sample of keratin structure to form a digest solution, followed by mixing the digest solution with a suspension of an ion exchange resin to remove an interfering, cross reacting substance naturally found in hair and finally subjecting the digest solution to analysis to determine the identity and amount of marijuana analyte in the keratin structure sample. To accelerate the method, cupric sulfate may be added to the mixture after degradation of the keratin sample in order to deactivate the activator. The enzyme may be a protease with papain, chymopapain, and proteinase K being preferred for use in the invention.
