Toxicology

The Division of Forensic Sciences (DOFS) Toxicology Section provides state and local law enforcement officials and medical examiners with vital information about human biological samples and specifically whether drugs, alcohol, or poisons may have played a role in the commission of a crime or a death. By analyzing blood, urine, stomach contents, and tissues, DOFS toxicologists are able to establish whether traces of alcohol, drugs, or poisons are present, and if so, in what quantity.
