Stomach, Hemorrhagic Gastritis, Arsenic Poisoning, 1934
Stomach showing splotches due to hemorrhagic gastritis, New York, 1934. Death attributed to acute arsenic poisoning. The development of forensic toxicology coincided with the spread of mass-produced and commercially distributed medicines and poisons (sometimes the same thing), and an associated rise in murders and suicides involving those substances. Arsenic is a poisonous metallic element having three allotropes, of which the gray form is the most common. It was first documented by Albertus Magnus. Arsenic is a metalloid.
