Using headspace capillary GC-MS with ion-trap detection, the additive in motor gasoline, MTBE (methyl tert.-butyl ether), was spotted in the blood from five victims of arsons set off with motor gasoline. In the brain from a death of a fire started by ignited isoparaffins, a number of branched C8 alkanes were found. Since 80 control samples of accidental fires, started by non-chemical means, tested negative for MTBE or isoparaffins, the data suggested that post-mortem exams for low-boiling organics may offer a new concept for arson analysis.
利用顶空气相毛细管色谱-质谱联用仪和离子阱检测技术，在五名被汽油纵火受害者的血液中发现了车用汽油中的添加剂甲基叔丁基醚（MTBE）。在由点燃异链烷烃引发火灾致死的受害者大脑中，发现了多种支链C8烷烃。由于80份由非化学手段引发意外火灾的对照样本对MTBE或异链烷烃检测呈阴性，这些数据表明，对低沸点有机物进行尸检可能为纵火分析提供一个新的概念。
