Abstract

The use of head space sampling in conjunction with gas chromatography has proved a useful technique for analyzing aviation accident post mortem material for ethanol, carbon monoxide, and volatile contaminants. An account of the experience of the technique to date at the Royal Air Force Institute of Pathology and Tropical Medicine is given, and the problems and advantages associated with the method are discussed.
