General description

A Snap-N-Spike® Reference Solution suitable as starting material for use in calibrators or controls for a variety of LC/MS or GC/MS applications from forensic analysis and clinical toxicology to urine drug testing and pharmaceutical research. Alfentanil is a pharmaceutical synthetic opioid sold as Alfenta and Rapifen for pain relief and anesthesia.

Application


  • Highly sensitive electrochemical detection: Research has developed a promising electrochemical platform for detecting fentanyl and alfentanil in human serum, suggesting a highly sensitive method to monitor these potent analgesics in clinical settings (Li et al., 2023).

  • Pharmacodynamic analysis under anesthesia: A study compared the effects of electromyogram to bispectral index and 95% spectral edge frequency under remimazolam and propofol anesthesia, which could be relevant for alfentanil usage scenarios in surgical settings (Xin et al., 2023).

  • Opioid-sparing anesthesia: A propensity score matching cohort study demonstrated that dexmedetomidine provides stable hemodynamics and short hospital stays in non-intubated thoracoscopic surgery, applicable for integrating alfentanil as part of opioid-sparing strategies (Ke et al., 2023).

  • Response to opioid supply shortages: Discussion on potential responses to remifentanil supply shortages, highlighting alternative strategies including the use of alfentanil, offers insights into managing opioid resources in healthcare (Sneyd, 2022).

  • Vaccine development against synthetic opioids: A study on the preclinical efficacy and selectivity of vaccines targeting fentanyl, alfentanil, sufentanil, and acetylfentanyl suggests a novel approach to treating or preventing opioid abuse and overdose (Baehr et al., 2022).
