Abstract
The study is designed to know the colour and state of stomach mucosa in all the poisoning death cases where an autopsy was conducted. The state of stomach mucosa in various poisons differs, probably due to preservatives, constituents or the poison by itself. But these changes remain static for a given poison irrespective of age, sex, stomach wash fluids, or the treatment adopted. Total 62 cases of death due to poisoning were studied at District Hospital Vijaypur from April 2019 to July 2021. Photographs of stomach mucosa were taken, viscera preserved and sent to RFSL through the police concerned. After receiving a chemical analysis report from the police, an opinion as to the cause of death chemical nature of poison is evident. It was compared with photographs of similar poisons. It was observed that the colour& state of mucosa was similar for specific poison subjected to variation in depth of colour, and there is a difference in colour and state of mucosa from one poison to another.
