Liver extractions have morphine and tramadol was quantified by GC-MS. Morphine was determined in liver concentration 176 u/g in Stas Otto. Liver concentration of morphine 267 u/g in ammonium sulfate extraction. Tramadol was determined in liver concentration 26.18 u/g in Stas Otto. Liver concentration of tramadol 22.41 u/g in ammonium sulfate extraction.
