title: [Chemical-toxicological diagnosis in 16 cases of "intravenous narcotism" deaths (author's transl)].
abstract: The chemical-toxicological diagnosis aspects involved in 16 cases of "intravenous narcotism" deaths are discussed. Liquids and biological materials were directly tested by RIA, GLC and TLC. According to the Authors, RIA is assumed to be more speedy and more sensitive than traditional chemical technics. Therefore RIA is proposed for quantitative determination of morfina and its derivates in biological liquids and viscera, previous the qualitative confirmation by the chemical tests.
