摘要：

Experiments are described in which fingernails were taken from 5 volunteers who had been given a therapeutic dose of arsenious oxide. Fingernail clippings taken over a period of 180 days from the date of ingestion were analysed for arsenic by neutron activation analysis. Plots showing the amounts of arsenic in the nail clippings show peaks which are attributable to arsenic entering the nail root via the blood stream. Therefore the sectional analysis of fingernails taken from victims of fatal arsenical poisoning may well offer an alternative to hair as a method of estimating times of exposure. © 1979, Forensic Science Society.
