Dr. Vernon,

I’ve worked in a Forensic Toxicology Laboratory for several years and we use Solid Phase Extraction for a great deal of our drug applications.  You can typically do a drug extraction using fairly common and less hazardous chemicals and reagents.

Feel free to contact me off-line if you would like further details.  I will be glad to offer some guidance.

I found out today that one of our teaching labs is conducted an extraction experiment with dichloromethane (caffeine from coffee)

I would like to provide them a reasonable alternative extraction experiment with an occupationally regulated carcinogen…

If you have a recommendation to look at, would you please contact me?

Thanks,
