مستخلص: Abstract: In postmortem toxicology analysis, a variety of specimens consisting of fluids and tissues are often collected, each with an intrinsic value. Oral cavity fluid (OCF) is emerging as an alternative matrix in forensic toxicology for contributing to a diagnosis in postmortem cases; especially when blood is limited or not available. The aim of this study was to assess the analytical results obtained from OCF and compare them with blood, urine, and other traditional matrices collected from the same postmortem subjects. Of the 62 decedents studied (including 1 stillborn, 1 charred, and 3 decomposed subjects), 56 had quantifiable drugs and metabolites data in the OCF, blood, and urine. Notable findings were benzoylecgonine (24 cases), ethyl sulfate (23 cases), acetaminophen (21 cases), morphine (21 cases), naloxone (21 cases), gabapentin (20 cases), fentanyl (17 cases), and 6-acetylmorphine (15 cases), which were detected more frequently in OCF than in blood (heart, femoral, or body cavity) or urine. This study suggests that OCF is a suitable matrix for detecting and quantifying analytes in postmortem subjects compared with traditional matrices, particularly when other matrices are limited or difficult to collect because of body condition or putrefaction.
