The authors relate a suicidal poisoning by nitrites. Post mortem findings are reported as well as a method for the quantitative assessment of NO2- in blood, urine, gastric and intestinal contents, kidney and liver. The concentration values obtained are correlated with the methemoglobin figures which indeed are lethal. The highest concentrations of NO2- are found in the small intestine where the nitrites seem to resist chemical decomposition owing to the reducing properties of the bacterial flora.
