Phosphine analysis in post mortem specimens following ingestion of aluminium phosphide.
Phosphine was detected in post mortem stomach and contents, blood, and liver specimens of a man who had ingested tablets containing aluminium phosphide. The phosphine was released from the samples after acid treatment and analysed by means of a headspace gas chromatographic technique using a nitrogen phosphorus detector.
