Abstract
Somewhat simplified, the search for poisons in the body can be subdivided into 3 main steps:
-
1.
Extraction from the biological matrix; and if we say extraction we do not restrict that term to liquid extraction techniques, but we also include other methods such as extraction by steam or ion exchangers.
-
2.
Fractionation of extracts into their components, which is today mostly carried out by chromatographic approaches.
-
3.
Identification of individual constituents, which is usually done — if not already accomplished by the chromatographic data — by spectrophotometry and more and more by mass spectrometry.
