[Determination of trasodone in cadaveric material].

Methods of trasodone isolation from cadaveric material by water and acetonitrile at pH-2.0, which may be used in expert practice, were developed. Acetonitrile method is recommended for everyday practice as it allows one to isolate about 60% of trasodone and to obtain extracts with lower content of extractive substances. Detection limit in case of trasodone isolation by acidified water is 50 micrograms in 25 g of the liver and by acetonitrile--25 micrograms in 25 g of the liver and kidney.
