[The use of high-pressure liquid chromatography for identifying barbiturates in cadaveric material].

A method for chemical toxic analysis of barbiturates has been developed, making use of acetone as an extracting agent and high-pressure liquid chromatography for the identification of the isolated substances. Analysis with the use of this method is preceded by extraction and chromatographic purification. The co-extractive substances do not interfere with the identification of barbiturates.
