title: Analysis of bone marrow and decomposed body tissue for the presence of paracetamol and dextropropoxyphene.
abstract: The analyses of bone marrow and body tissue (adipocere) from a severely decomposed body for the presence of paracetamol and dextropropoxyphene (Distalgesic) are described, and the levels of drugs found are presented. The level of dextropropoxyphene in the bone marrow was found to be unexpectedly higher than that of paracetamol.
