THE DETERMINATION OF THE CONTENT OF LTB_4 IN SKIN INCISIONS / 中国法医学杂志

ABSTRACT

The Content of LT B_4 in the edge of 36 SD rats were determined by HPLC. It was found that the content of LTB_4 in the anternortem wounds is markedly increased, and has certain linear relationship with time of injury within one hour. No increasing of LTB_4 could be found in the postmortem wounds. It indicates that it is very valuable to estimate time of injury by determining LT B_4 content in wound edge, The content of LTB_4 in wound edge can be determined rapidly and accurately with HPLC.
