PG  - 1527-30
AB  - The abuse of addictive drugs has been increasing world-wide and causing serious 
      social problems. Recently, illegal drugs such as methamphetamine(MP) and 
      3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) have been frequently abused in Japan. 
      The development and application of analytical methods of the abused drugs in 
      biological specimens are very important for the prediction of and protection from 
      the risk to human health. The biological specimens such as urine, blood and hair 
      have been used for elucidation of the use of addictive drugs. Among them, hair is 
      a powerful tool to supply historical information of drug abuse for a long period. 
      In this section, analytical method for detection of addictive drugs of abuse was 
      summarized. Our current study on MP and MDMA was also introduced.
