About
Martin Josefsson is a leading figure in analytical toxicology, with a primary focus on the detection and characterization of new psychoactive substances (NPS). His most impactful work centers on the development of advanced mass spectrometry methods for identifying synthetic cannabinoids, a rapidly evolving class of recreational drugs. In his highly cited 2018 study, Josefsson pioneered a sensitive UHPLC–QTOF–MS method for screening, quantifying, and confirming synthetic cannabinoid metabolites in urine—a critical tool for clinical and forensic laboratories. This work, which has garnered 38 citations, directly addresses the challenge of continuously emerging novel compounds by targeting their metabolic signatures. Beyond this landmark paper, Josefsson’s broader contributions include refining analytical workflows for NPS, improving the reliability of drug testing in biological matrices. His research is instrumental in helping toxicologists keep pace with the illicit drug market, ensuring public health and safety through robust, cutting-edge detection techniques.
