TY - JOUR PY - 1985// TI - Drug levels found in cases of fatal self-poisoning JO - Forensic science international A1 - Paterson, S. C. SP - 129 EP - 133 VL - 27 IS - 2 N2 - A list of drug levels found in cases of fatal self-poisoning is presented here. These are all cases where only one drug was found and the cause of death in each case was attributed to an overdose of that particular drug. For each case a full drug screen was carried out. In general thin-layer chromatography (TLC) was used as the initial screening technique and any positive findings were then confirmed by gas liquid chromatography (GLC) and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). When the drug had been positively identified, the blood level was measured.
