Forensic Determination of Sildenafil and Vardenafil in Seized Evidence
A plastic-wrapped bundle of herbs packaged and sent halfway around the world. A cardboard box filled with blister-packaged counterfeit tablets. A bag of coffee. One-half tablet, either cut or bitten. A single open capsule with only a residue of powder remaining. These are just a few of the samples that have been seized by law enforcement agencies, analyzed by forensic chemists and identified as containing illegally-distributed sildenafil, the active ingredient in Viagra.

Ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography–high-resolution tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-HRMS/MS) reveals a chemical imbalance behind alcohol-positive milk.
"Perspectives in HPLC" examines 5 long-held HPLC "rules" (mobile phase filtration, routine buffer use, avoiding pH near an analyte's pKa, defaulting to 4.6-mm columns, and relying on AI for early method development), showing with experimental evidence that each is conditional rather than universally true in modern small-molecule drug testing.
In this ninth part of " Conversations with Michael Dong," a series on fundamentals of HPLC in pharmaceutical analysis, LCGC International’s "Perspectives in HPLC" column editor explores the reasons why mobile phase filtration is not needed.
