Evaluation of the role of toxicological data in discriminating between H2 S femoral blood concentration secondary to lethal poisoning and endogenous H2 S putrefactive production
Highlights • Hydrogen sulfide is a colorless gas and has a strong odor of rotten eggs. • It causes histotoxic hypoxemia and respiratory depression. • We evaluate the role of toxicological data in identifying H2 S lethal poisoning. • We compare the post-mortem H2 S blood concentrations. • The results...

Zusammenfassung: | Highlights • Hydrogen sulfide is a colorless gas and has a strong odor of rotten eggs. • It causes histotoxic hypoxemia and respiratory depression. • We evaluate the role of toxicological data in identifying H2 S lethal poisoning. • We compare the post-mortem H2 S blood concentrations. • The results underlines the importance of circumstantial evidences. |
