Post-Mortem Forensic Toxicology
Toxicology is the examination of biological specimens for the presence of alcohol, drugs and other toxic substances. Biological specimens are collected at autopsy and can include the blood samples, urine, gastric and many others.
The specimens are put through a battery of chemical tests and introduced to state of the art instrumentation such as Biochip Array, GC/FID, GC/MS, GC/QQQ/MS and LC/IT/MS, LC/QTOF/MS, LC/QQQ/MS.
 

Analysis Provided

Determines the absence or presence of drugs and their metabolites, chemicals such as ethanol and other volatile substances, carbon monoxide and other gases, metals, and other toxic chemicals in human fluids and tissues, and evaluates their role as a determinant or contributory factor in the cause and manner of death.
