A new method was developed for the analysis of illicit drugs in human urine by coupling carrier-mediated liquid phase microextraction (LPME) to high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). By adding an appropriate carrier in organic phase, simultaneous extraction and enrichment of hydrophilic (morphine and ephedrine) and hydrophobic (pethidine) drugs were achieved. Effects of the types of organic solvents and carriers, the carrier concentration in the organic phase, the HCl concentration in the acceptor solution, the stirring rate, and the extraction time on the enrichment factor of analytes were investigated. Under the optimal experimental conditions, high enrichment factors (202–515) were obtained. The linear detection ranges were 0.1–10 mg L−1 for the studied drugs. The limits of detection (LOD) at signal-to-noise ratio of 3 were 0.05 mg L−1 for both morphine and ephedrine, and 0.02 mg L−1 for pethidine. This method was successfully applied to analysis of ephedrine in real urine specimens, revealing that the determination of illicit drugs in urine was feasible.
