A review of forensic chemical drug testing in hair is given. Applications for analysis of hair are described. The special problems linked to the determination of drugs in hair such as contamination, differences in sex and ethnic groups and cosmetic pretreatment of the hair are outlined. It is concluded that greater knowledge of hair analysis is needed before the results can be used for toxicological evaluation at the same level as blood. On the other hand, a chemical hair analysis might expose a (mis)use of drugs and follow it step by step up to half a year back in time. In this way, it may supplement a systematic toxicological analysis (STA) for 'a general unknown' for use by police and forensic pathologists.
本文对毛发中法医化学药物检测进行了综述。描述了毛发分析的应用。概述了与毛发中药物测定相关的特殊问题,如污染、性别和种族差异以及毛发的美容预处理。得出的结论是,在能够将毛发分析结果用于与血液相同水平的毒理学评估之前,需要对毛发分析有更多的了解。另一方面,化学毛发分析可能会揭示药物的(误)用情况,并追溯到半年前的用药情况。通过这种方式,它可以补充警方和法医病理学家用于“一般未知物”的系统毒理学分析(STA)。
