[Detection of bancol for the purpose of forensic chemical expertise]
Abstract:
Optimal conditions for the extraction of bancol from the biological material with toluene are described. The possibility of its purification and separation from co-extracted compounds on a silicagel L column, 40/100 mcm is illustrated. Identification and quantitative determination of bancol isolated from the cadaverous liver were performed by the electron spectrophotometry technique, thin-layer chromatography, and high performance liquid chromatography using normal-phase sorbents. A method of bancol detection was adapted for the purpose of forensic medical expertise and applied for the postmortem examination of the cadaverous tissues.
