title: [Expert significance of evaluating volatile non-metal combustion products in analysis of blood from subjects dead in fire].
abstract: Qualitative and quantitative composition and time course of formation of toxic substances during burning of polymers have been studied for two polymers, P-53-P and STBO. The most toxic gaseous products of nitrogen combustion are listed: hydrogen cyanide, nitrites, acid nitriles, aldehydes, aromatic carbohydrates, alkanes, and carbon oxide. Two expert conclusions are presented, including analysis of blood and viscera from subjects who died during fire. The following toxic substances were detected: carbon oxide, hydrogen cyanide, nitrites, acrylonitrile, acetonitrile, benzene, and methane in one case and the same products except carbon oxide in the other. The author considers that the list of tested toxic substances should be extended, particularly in cases with negative results of blood testing for carbon oxide and carboxyhemoglobin.
