Mathematical Models Employed to Predict the Timeframe of Intoxications as Interpretation Tools in Forensic Cases
Journal Title: Journal of Forensic Toxicology & Pharmacology - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
Toxicological analysis interpretation is a complex task where estimating the time elapsed since a drug was last consumed or the chronicity of consumption provides crucial information in forensic cases i.e. driving under the influence of drugs (DUID). This review focuses on the description of some strategies reported in the literature that contribute to such estimations.
