High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) has been widely used for the analysis of antibiotics because it is superior to conventional microbiological assays in terms of specificity, sensitivity, and analysis time. Chromatography methods are a well-established, powerful suite of methodologies in forensic science. They can be employed for easy identification of a plethora of chemical compounds that may be present in samples from terrorist incidents, drug busts, murders, and robberies, to name but a few. The fundamentals and widespread applications of HPLC are standard in analytical textbooks and are described in many monographs. In forensic toxicology, the identification and quantification of illegal and therapeutic drugs, pesticides, and other organic poisons from human body fluids and tissue sample are the dominant tasks.,
