Intralipid as a matrix additive for evaluating hyperlipidemic postmortem blood.

ABSTRACT: Postmortem whole blood samples can differ greatly in quality where hyperlipemia is a frequent variable that can influence the results of analytical methods. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of lipemia on postmortem analysis as well as demonstrate the usage of Intralipid in comparison to pooled postmortem lipids as matrix additives for meaningful evaluation and validation of hyperlipidemic postmortem samples. Hyperlipidemic blood samples were simulated by adding different concentrations of Intralipid or pooled authentic postmortem lipids to bovine whole blood. The hyperlipidemic blood samples were spiked with 14 benzodiazepines and five sedative and antianxiety drugs (alprazolam, clonazepam, 7-aminoclonazepam, diazepam, flunitrazepam, 7-aminoflunitrazepam, hydroxyzine,
