All pathological findings as well as clinical symptoms suggested acute poisoning, while a highly elevated As level of 26.4 mu g g(-1) in her hair collected at the autopsy, which was determined with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry indicated chronic poisoning. To elucidate this discrepancy, instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) with proven accuracy was performed of another set of sectioned hair samples.
