Relevant autopsy findings are given and an extraction procedure for the determination of Ixoynil in the taken in fluid and in autopsy material is described. In the unknown fluid Ioxynil has been identified by using IR and NMR spectroscopy and determined by UV spectrophotometry. In biological material Ioxynil has been identified by TLC and IR spectroscopy. For the determination of blood serum, TLC-densitometry in situ has been carried out.
