摘要
We investigated the application of energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescent spectrometry (EDX) analysis to the detection of aluminum (Al), tin (Sn) and zinc (Zn) as the electric conductor in experimental electrical injury. Experimental electrical injury was caused by exposure to alternating current at 100 V for 10 s. The peaks of Al, Sn, and Zn were detected by EDX in formalin-fixed skin samples of each current exposure group. Histological examination revealed blister formation in all samples of each current exposure group. EDX analysis technique can be applied to detect Al, Sn, and Zn as the electric conductor, and is useful in the diagnosis of electrocution.
