Abstract:
Report about 2 death cases due to an overdosage of phenothiacine derivates. The EMIT-test showed positive results concerning opiates for both cases. But morphine only was detected in one case by a fluorimetric method. The EMIT-test for opiates can show positive results in error, if there exist phenothiacines in the specimen at the same time.
