氯胺酮在家兔死后体内的弥散研究

目的研究氯胺酮在大白兔体内死后弥散过程和再分布机制。方法 48只实验大白兔随机分为8组,采用缺氧处死后以150mg/kg氯胺酮灌胃,尸体仰卧位于室温下放置;在0~96h内分8个时间点各解剖1组,提取体液和脏器组织样品;采用GC/MS法定性结合GC-NPD法定量检测样品中氯胺酮含量,并计算心血/外周血中氯胺酮含量的比值。结果大白兔死后氯胺酮灌胃尸体放置96h内,脑、尿液、玻璃体液、左上/下肢肌肉样本中均未检测到氯胺酮,心血、外周血、心肌、脾、肾、肝、肺、胆汁中氯胺酮含量随死后时间呈动态升高的变化;其中距离胃较近的组织(如脾)较早检测到含量较高的氯胺酮,而距离较远的组织或体液中氯胺酮含量较低且较晚检测到;心血/外周血中氯胺酮含量比值为1.73。结论氯胺酮在家兔体内存在死后再分布,从胃到器官组织、心血顺浓度梯度弥散是主要机制。脑、玻璃体液、尿液、肢体肌肉不受死后弥散的影响,可作为生前服毒与死后染毒氯胺酮的鉴别依据。

Effect of post-mortem changes on peripheral and central whole blood and tissue clozapine and norclozapine concentrations in the domestic pig (Sus scrofa)

Interpretation of the results of psychoactive or other drug measurements in post-mortem blood specimens may not be straightforward, in part because analyte concentrations in blood may change after death. There is also the issue of comparability of plasma (or serum) results to those obtained in whole blood. To investigate these problems with respect to clozapine, this drug (10mg/kg daily) was given orally to two pigs. Blood was collected 3h post-dose on day 7, the animals were sacrificed, and blood taken from central and peripheral veins for up to 48 h after death. Tissue samples were also collected immediately after death and at 48 h. Ante-mortem whole blood clozapine/N-desmethylclozapine (norclozapine) concentrations were 0.86/1.07 and 1.11/1.15 mg/l in pigs 1 and 2, respectively. Blood clozapine and norclozapine concentrations generally increased after death (central vein: clozapine up to 300%, norclozapine up to 460%; peripheral vein: clozapine up to 155%, norclozapine up to 185%). Initial blood and kidney clozapine and norclozapine concentrations were comparable in both animals, but were some two-fold higher in heart, liver and striated muscle in pig 2. In both animals, the heart and striated muscle clozapine and norclozapine concentrations had increased some two- to three-fold at 48 h, whilst the liver and kidney concentrations were essentially unchanged. The reason for the increase in heart and striated muscle concentrations at 48 h is unclear, but could be simple variation in sample site. The plasma:whole blood distribution of clozapine and norclozapine was studied in vitro. In human blood (one volunteer donor, haematocrit 0.50) the plots of plasma versus whole blood concentration were linear for both analytes across the range 0.1-1.5mg/l, although clozapine favoured plasma (plasma:whole blood ratio=1.12), whereas norclozapine favoured whole blood (ratio 0.68). In pig blood, the plots of plasma versus whole blood were non-linear in both cases, although clozapine favoured plasma to a greater extent than norclozapine. This may be due to lower plasma clozapine and norclozapine protein binding capacity in the pig as compared to man.     

氯胺酮在急性中毒大鼠体内的死后再分布研究

目的探索氯胺酮在大鼠体内的死后再分布变化规律及温度对再分布的影响。方法48只雄性SD大鼠随机分为2个实验组（室温组24只、冷藏组18只）和1个对照组（6只）,实验组大鼠以氯胺酮290mg／kg灌胃,45min后缺氧处死,分别置于室温（24℃）和冷藏（4℃）条件下,于死后不同时间（0、12、24、48h）取心血、外周血、肝、肺、肾、心肌、大脑,检测其中氯胺酮含量;对照组大鼠以生理盐水灌胃,各对应组织器官样品为空白对照。血和组织样品中加入内标物SKF。。后碱化,乙酸乙酯萃取,GC／MS全扫描定性,内标法、工作曲线法气相色谱定量分析。结果室温条件下,大鼠死后48h内随着死亡时间延长,心血、肺、肝中氯胺酮的浓度呈升高趋势（P〈0．05）,肾脏中氯胺酮的浓度先升高后下降（P〈0．05）,外周血、心肌和脑中氯胺酮的浓度无显著性变化（P〉0．05）。冷藏条件下,血液及组织中氯胺酮浓度变化无显著性差异（P〉0．05）,除心肌外,各样本浓度均低于相应时段室温条件保存的样本。结论氯胺酮在大鼠体内存在死后再分布现象。温度对大鼠死后血液及组织中氯胺酮浓度变化有较明显的影响。     

Clozapine--a dangerous drug in a clozapine-naïve subject

Clozapine is a uniquely effective antipsychotic, but is very toxic in clozapine-na?ve subjects. A 34-year-old male patient in a mental health facility, who was not prescribed clozapine, took 350 mg clozapine obtained from another patient at night. He was found dead the next morning. The presence of cardiomegaly related to obesity may have increased the risk of suffering an acute cardiac event after ingestion of clozapine. The medication prescribed to the patient was not thought to have contributed to the fatal outcome. Post mortem femoral blood clozapine and norclozapine concentrations were 0.48 and 0.20mg/L, respectively. By way of comparison, audit of 104,127 plasma samples (26,796 patients) assayed for therapeutic drug monitoring purposes 1993-2007, showed plasma clozapine 0.35 mg/L or more in 57.5% samples (8.4% 1mg/L or more). Those involved in the investigation of clozapine-associated deaths need to be aware that that death in an adult may occur after a single 'therapeutic' dose. A diagnosis of fatal clozapine poisoning cannot be made solely on the basis of a post mortem blood clozapine measurement.     

芬太尼中毒死亡大白兔体内分布研究

目的建立芬太尼中毒致死的动物模型,探讨芬太尼在致死大白兔体内的分布规律。方法用6只雄性大白兔按5.4mg/kg(2LD50)经耳缘静脉推注芬太尼注射液,大白兔死后迅速解剖并提取心、肝、脾、肺、肾、脑、肌肉、睾丸、胃、心血、周围血、胆汁和尿液,用正己烷∶乙醇(20∶1)萃取,利用UPLC-MSn法检测各组织和体液中芬太尼含量,使用SPSS15.0进行方差分析,均数两两比较的SNK法进行统计分析。检验水准为α=0.05。结果实验大白兔给药后1min出现颈项强直、四肢抽搐等中毒症状,平均4.7min因呼吸抑制而死亡。死后肺内芬太尼含量最高,其次是肾和心,而尿液中含量较低。结论本实验的结果与相关案例报道基本吻合,提示肺、肾和心脏是芬太尼中毒案件鉴定的理想检材,芬太尼在致死大白兔体内的分布规律可为相关案件的鉴定提供一定的依据。     

Postmortem disposition of morphine in rats

The antemortem and postmortem distribution of morphine was studied in rats for the purpose of establishing whether drug distribution is altered after death. Samples were examined for free and total morphine concentration, pH and water content at 0-96 h after death. Morphine was administered antemortem at various intervals. All groups of rats studied showed a significant (P less than 0.05) increase in postmortem cardiac blood morphine concentrations. These changes, which are detectable within 5 min after death are likely to be related to an observed, rapid decrease in cardiac blood pH from 7.34 +/- 0.02 to 6.74 +/- 0.05. Significant increases in free morphine levels were, also, observed 24 and 96 h after death in liver, heart and forebrain while urine morphine levels decreased. The liver showed the greatest increase (20-fold) in free morphine levels 96 h after death, while hindbrain levels did not significantly change. Bacterial hydrolysis of morphine glucuronides accounted only in part for the observed increase in free morphine concentration. Postmortem fluid movement and pH-dependent drug partitioning was detected. It would appear that several mechanisms are responsible for postmortem drug distribution. Understanding the mechanisms and patterns responsible may eventually lead to better choices of postmortem tissue which may better represent antemortem drug levels.     

Determination of morphine in postmortem rabbit bone marrow and comparison with blood morphine concentrations

The aim of this study is to predict how long after time of death a buried body could be analyzed for opiates in soft tissues and to show the accessibility and suitability of bone marrow as a useful toxicological specimen from buried bodies. Morphine solutions were injected in nine albino rabbits. Doses ranged from 0.3 to 1.1 mg/kg with 0.1 mg/kg increments. One hour after the injections, the rabbits were sacrificed. Blood, urine and bone marrow samples were collected for analysis. After the whole bodies were buried, femur bone marrow specimens were collected on the seventh and fourteenth days. CEDIA was used to monitor morphine contents of the collected samples. All experimental cases showed that the increase in the given morphine doses correlated with the increase in blood and bone marrow morphine concentrations. High morphine concentrations were detected in urine samples, but there was no correlation between the urine and blood or urine and bone marrow morphine concentrations. Statistically meaningful increases in bone marrow morphine concentrations were found parallel to increase of blood morphine concentrations. Seventh and fourteenth day postmortem morphine concentrations also followed this correlation. Morphine concentrations in bone marrow at 7 and 14 day postmortem decreased consistently when compared with bone marrow morphine concentrations collected immediately after death. We conclude that in sudden death when other specimens are unavailable due to degradation, bone marrow can be a most useful specimen. Further experimental research in this area is required to validate bone marrow as an alternative tissue.     

Potential for error when assessing blood cyanide concentrations in fire victims.

The present study explores toxicologic significance of blood cyanide concentrations in fire victims. Headspace gas chromatography was used for cyanide detection. Analysis of blood samples from ten fire victims (postmortem interval = 8 h to 3 to 5 d) detected zero to 11.9 mg/L of cyanide and a large difference in cyanide concentrations among victims. Carboxyhemoglobin (COHb) saturation was in the range of 24.9 to 84.2%. To examine the effects of methemoglobinemia and postmortem interval on blood cyanide concentrations in fire victims, an experiment was carried out using rabbits as the animal model. The rabbits were sacrificed by intramuscular injection of 1 mL/kg 2% potassium cyanide 5 min after intravenous injection of 0.33 mL/kg of 3% sodium nitrite (Group A, n = 3) or physiological saline (Group B, n = 6). Average methemoglobin contents immediately before potassium cyanide administration were 6.9 and 0.8% in Groups A and B, respectively. Average cyanide concentrations in cardiac blood at the time of death were 47.4 and 3.56 mg/L, respectively. When blood-containing hearts of the rabbits (n = 3 for Group B) were left at 46 degrees C for the first 1 h, at 20 to 25 degrees C for the next 23 h and then at 4 degrees C for 48 h, approximately 85 and 46% of the original amounts of blood cyanide disappeared within 24 h in Groups A and B, respectively. After the 72-h storage period, 37 and 10%, respectively, of the original amounts of cyanide remained in the blood. When the other three hearts in Group B were left at 20 to 25 degrees C for the last 48 h without refrigeration, cyanide had disappeared almost completely by the end of the experiment. The present results and those published in the literature demonstrate that the toxic effects of cyanide on fire victims should not be evaluated based solely on the concentration in blood.     

Postmortem metabolic indices of antemortem adrenergic stimulation

Tissue lactate concentration has been reported to be a useful postmortem indicator of antemortem awareness of mortal danger. The purpose of this study was to determine further whether selected tissue metabolites could be used as postmortem markers of antemortem adrenergic stress. Sprague-Dawley albino rats were anesthetized with pentobarbital and then injected with 2.0 mg kg-1 i.p. epinephrine hydrochloride to induce experimentally a severe sympathetic response that may be associated with the awareness of mortal danger; 20 min after the injection of epinephrine, when the metabolic response was at its peak, the animals were killed by exsanguination. Samples of the following tissues were removed immediately prior to death (0 h) and 48 h postmortem: soleus, plantaris, kidney medulla, kidney cortex, liver, and heart. These samples were analyzed for glycogen, lactate, ATP, creatine phosphate, pH, and total protein concentration. Significant differences in lactate concentration were observed in all tissues except soleus at 0 h in the epinephrine-injected animals. Specific tissues also had significant reductions in glycogen, ATP, and creatine phosphate concentrations at 0 h. At 48 h postmortem, however, only the liver and soleus lactate concentrations were significantly different from the 48-h control samples. It is unlikely that these small differences found in some tissues at 48 h postmortem would be detected in an uncontrolled accident situation. We concluded from these findings that these selected tissue metabolites are not useful as long-term postmortem indicators of antemortem adrenergically induced hypermetabolism.
