Ethanol concentrations in antemortem blood samples under controlled conditions.
AIM The change of antemortem blood alcohol concentration (BAC) in inadequately processed samples was examined. METHODS The study was performed on nine healthy, sober volunteers after overnight fasting. Blood samples were divided into groups and stored, with or without NaF, for varying time periods (12, 24 and 48 h) and at different temperatures (4 degrees C and 20 degrees C). BAC analysis was...
متن کاملEstimating antemortem drug concentrations from postmortem blood samples: the influence of postmortem redistribution.
AIMS To compare blood drug concentrations during life with postmortem drug concentrations measured from a peripheral site and a central site. METHODS Coroner's cases from October 1990 to July 1997 were reviewed. Six cases had data on both antemortem and postmortem blood drug concentrations. The postmortem to antemortem ratio was compared with the postmortem central to peripheral ratio, using ...
متن کاملAntemortem and postmortem methamphetamine blood concentrations: three case reports.
We compare antemortem whole-blood to postmortem peripheral blood concentrations of methamphetamine and its metabolite amphetamine in three medical examiner cases. Antemortem specimens, initially screened positive for methamphetamine by ELISA, were subsequently confirmed, together with the postmortem specimens, by GC-MS analysis following solid-phase extraction. Methamphetamine peripheral blood ...
متن کاملComparative analysis of hospital and forensic laboratory ethanol concentrations: A 15 month investigation of antemortem specimens.
Quantitative serum alcohol concentrations from regional hospitals (from specimens collected at time of hospital admission) were compared to results from whole blood (from specimens collected at the time of hospital admission) concentrations measured at the San Diego County Medical Examiner's Office (SDCMEO). Over a 15 month period (January 2012 to March 2013), the postmortem forensic toxicology...
متن کاملComparison of ethanol concentrations in venous blood and end-expired breath during a controlled drinking study.
Concentration-time profiles of ethanol were determined for venous whole blood and end-expired breath during a controlled drinking experiment in which healthy men (n=9) and women (n=9) drank 0.40-0.65 g ethanol per kg body weight in 20-30 min. Specimens of blood and breath were obtained for analysis of ethanol starting at 50-60 min post-dosing and then every 30-60 min for 3-6 h. This protocol fu...
