Abstract

A statistical analysis of cases of chemical poisonings over a six-year period in Volgograd was conducted. The features and circumstances of 209 fatal poisonings by an unidentified substance were analyzed and systematized. The number of poisoning deaths rose during this period. It was found that the circumstances of death help in diagnosing the possible characteristics of the poison. Attention is drawn to the problems that arise when conducting a forensic chemical analysis, which may be useful for deciding the specific cause of death in future cases.
