title: [The value of the Emit-dau system in the examination of cadaveric urine].
abstract: Randomly taken postmortem urine samples (170) were analyzed by the Emit-dau system for their barbiturate and benzodiazepine content. Of the samples, 23% and 25% were found positive for barbiturate and benzodiazepine, respectively. The percentages of the positive samples were reduced by a heating process to 9% and 11%, respectively. TLC and Emit-st were used for reference procedures. The relative high percentage (above 30%) of the urine samples analyzed exhibited elevated lysozyme activity and protein value. It was found that the disturbing proteins in the Emit-dau system contained not only endogene lysozyme but other thermolabile fractions with higher molecular weight.
