Drug Testing and Analysis
Drug Testing and Analysis (commonly abbreviated as Drug Test. Anal.) is a monthly journal published by Wiley, launched in January 2009 with a combined first and second issue as volume 1. Rather than organising itself around a single technique, it gathers chromatography, mass spectrometry, immunoassays and electrophoresis under one applied question, the identification and analysis of controversial substances.《药物检测与分析》(Drug Testing and Analysis,常用缩写为 Drug Test. Anal.)是威立出版(Wiley)出版的月刊,2009 年 1 月以第 1 卷第 1、2 期合刊创刊。刊物不局限于单一技术,而是围绕「争议物质的鉴定与分析」这一件事,把色谱、质谱、免疫方法与电泳等手段汇到同一个应用场景里。
Scope
The journal sorts its applied ground into six headings:刊物的应用场景按官方口径归为六个方向:
- Sports doping: methods for detecting prohibited substances and their metabolites, with readings of the annual prohibited list issued by the World Anti-Doping Agency.体育反兴奋剂: 禁用物质及其代谢物的检测方法,世界反兴奋剂机构年度禁用清单的解读。
- Illicit and recreational drugs: identification of new psychoactive substances and designer drugs, workplace testing schemes and the avoidance of false calls.非法与娱乐性药物: 新精神活性物质与策划药的鉴定、雇主药物检测方案与误判防范。
- Pharmaceuticals: pharmacokinetics, metabolism studies, and characterisation of impurities in biosimilars and generics.制药领域: 药代动力学、代谢研究、生物类似药与仿制药的杂质表征。
- Toxico-pathology: detection of drugs in post-mortem samples and tissues, bearing on cause of death and poisoning findings.毒理病理: 死后样品与组织中的药物检出,为死因与中毒判定提供依据。
- Forensics and homeland security: analysis of scene evidence and suspected chemical warfare agents, and identification of controlled substances at crime scenes.法庭科学与安保: 现场物证与生化战剂嫌疑物的分析,犯罪现场管制物质的鉴定。
- Environment: wastewater epidemiology and the environmental behaviour of pollutants and drug residues.环境领域: 污水流行病学,污染物与药物残留的环境行为。
History
- Founding (2009): the journal opened in January 2009 with a combined first and second issue, filling a gap for a specialist title in the testing of controversial substances.创刊(2009年): 刊物于 2009 年 1 月以第 1 卷第 1、2 期合刊创刊,填补了争议物质检测领域缺少专门刊物的空缺。
- Editorial team: Mario Thevis of the German Sport University Cologne took the chair at launch, with Simon Brandt of the University of Liverpool, Tiia Kuuranne of the Swiss Laboratory for Doping Analyses and Mikael Hedeland of Uppsala University as associate editors.编辑团队: 创刊即由德国科隆体育大学的马里奥·特维斯(Mario Thevis)任主编,副编辑包括利物浦大学的西蒙·勃兰特(Simon Brandt)、瑞士兴奋剂检测实验室的蒂亚·库拉内(Tiia Kuuranne)与乌普萨拉大学的米凯尔·赫德兰德(Mikael Hedeland)。
- Running feature: the annual banned substance review appears each year and reached its eighteenth edition in February 2026, covering methods published between October 2024 and September 2025 and serving as a standing reference in doping control.特色连载: 年度禁用物质综述逐年出版,2026 年 2 月已出到第 18 版,覆盖 2024 年 10 月至 2025 年 9 月发表的新检测方法,是兴奋剂检测领域的固定参考。
- Metric trend: the impact factor has oscillated around 3 and stood at 2.6 in 2025, placing the journal in the second to third quartile of biochemical research methods and analytical chemistry.指标走势: 影响因子在 3 上下波动,2025 年为 2.6,在生化研究方法与分析化学两个类目中列二至三区。
Editors
The journal runs on an editor-in-chief with a special issues editor alongside. No acceptance rate or review duration is published.刊物实行主编负责制并设专题编委;出版方未公布录用比例与审稿时长。
- Editor-in-chief: Mario Thevis, professor for preventive doping research at the Institute of Biochemistry of the German Sport University Cologne, who has led the annual banned substance review for years.现任主编: 马里奥·特维斯(Mario Thevis),德国科隆体育大学生物化学研究所预防性反兴奋剂研究教授,长期主持年度禁用物质综述的撰写。
- Special issues editor: David Cowan of King's College London commissions the special issues.专题编委: 伦敦国王学院的大卫·考恩(David Cowan)负责专题合辑的组稿。
- Advisory board: advisers come from testing laboratories, forensic institutions and pharmaceutical companies in Britain, the United States, Germany, France, Norway, Japan, Cuba and Hong Kong.顾问委员会: 顾问来自英、美、德、法、挪威、日本、古巴与中国香港等地的检测实验室、法医机构与制药企业。
- Method-agnostic stance: the journal keeps no methodological gate, and a paper that runs gas chromatography-mass spectrometry alongside immunoassay is unremarkable, since what the office weighs is reliability in the controversial-substance setting.多技术取向: 刊物对方法学不设门户之见,一篇论文同时用气相色谱-质谱与免疫筛查并不罕见,编辑部看重的是在争议物质场景中的可靠性。
