The toxicologic results from the 47 victims of the explosion on the USS Iowa are presented. Good correlation between carboxyhemoglobin saturations and cause of death was found. There were no correlations between blood cyanide concentrations and causes of death. Volatile analysis suggested postmortem ethanol production rather than antemortem ethanol ingestion. No drugs except nicotine were detected in any of the victims.
本文呈现了衣阿华号战列舰爆炸事件中47名受害者的毒理学检测结果。发现碳氧血红蛋白饱和度与死因之间存在良好的相关性。血液氰化物浓度与死因之间不存在相关性。挥发性分析表明存在死后乙醇生成而非生前乙醇摄入。在任何一名受害者中均未检测到除尼古丁之外的其他药物。
