    Notes: Abstract A 48-year-old man was killed by the explosion of a letter bomb after receiving severe injuries to his face and left hand. The autopsy ascertained that the right eye and orbit had been completely destroyed by a large piece of metal from a tin can that had entered the cranial cavity through the right eye and caused fatal brain damage. The victim had also sustained a severe injury to his left hand. Reconstruction of the metal and plastic fragments showed that the victim had received a padded envelope with a video cassette in which a simple explosive device was hidden in a flat tin. The explosive charge consisted of a mixture (ca. 60 g) of sodium chlorate, sodium chloride and sucrose. The charge was detonated by a nylon cord attached to the inside of the envelope which was stretched when the video cassette was pulled out of the envelope. This removed a piece of plastic from between two contacts, and the explosion was set off immediately by a battery which activated two flash bulbs placed within the charge.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Knallkartuschen („Platzpatronen”), die zum Verschießen aus Schreckschußwaffen (§ 22 WaffG) bestimmt sind, wurden hinsichtlich ihres Aufbaues sowie des Treib- und Zündmittels untersucht. Zur Untersuchung gelangte Kartuschenmunition sämtlicher für Kurzwaffen erhältlicher Kaliber. Der Aufbau der Hülsen sowie der Zündelemente entsprachen im wesentlichem dem von Patronenmunition. Die Analysen der Treibladungspulver (TLP) erfolgten mittels HPLC, die der Zündsätze durch Röntgenfluoreszenz und Röntgendiffraktion: Bei Knallkartuschen fand sich als Treibmittel überwiegend einbasiges Treibladungspulver (Nitrocellulose-TLP), vereinzelt aber auch Schwarzpulver. In den größeren Kalibern fanden sich zweibasige Treibladungspulver (Nitroglycerin-TLP) mit Zusätzen von DNT und Dibutylphtalat (DBP). Die einbasigen TLP zeigten sich mit Diphenylamin (DPA), die mehrbasigen TLP mit Centralit I (C I) stabilisiert. Die Zündsätze enthielten als Sprengstoffe fast ausschließlich Bleitrizinat und/oder Hexogen, als Sauerstofflieferanten Bariumnitrate. Eine Besonderheit der Knallkartuschenmunition ist das Vorhandensein eines scheibenförmigen Zwischenmittels, das das Treibmittel zusammenhält und gegen den Hülsenboden drückt. Aufgrund des geringen Gewichtes kommt den Zwischenmitteln keine wesentliche kinetische Energie zu.
    Notes: Abstract We examined the composition of blank cartridges for all available calibers used for starter pistols in Germany including 6 mm, .22 long, 315, 8 × 20 mm, 9 × 17 mm, 9 mm P.A., .35, and .45 short. The cartridge cases and the primer compositions were found to be similar to those of live ammunition. Analyses of the propellants and the priming compositions were performed using HPLC (propellants) and x-ray diffraction/fluorescence (primer). Nitrocellulose was found to be the main propellant of blank cartridges (mono-basic powder) but black powder is also still in use. In the larger calibres we found double base powder (nitroglycerine-powder) with DNT and dibutylphtalate (DBP) as additives. The mono-basic powder was stabilised with diphenylamine (DPA), and the double base powder with centralit I (CI). The primers consisted of lead styphnate and/or hexogen and barium nitrates were typical oxygen donators. A characteristic of blank cartridges is the presence of small discs made of cork or paper which are positioned on top of the propellant to keep it near the bottom of the cartridge case (near the primer). Because of the small mass of these discs the amount of kinetic energy imported is negligible.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Es wird über einen Suizid mit einer Gaspistole berichtet, die mit 8-mm-Platzpatronen geladen war. Der 58-jährige Mann hatte sich zunächst in die Schläfe und anschließend in den Nacken geschossen. Hierbei waren tiefreichende, beschmauchte Wundhöhlen entstanden. Die Weichteile waren alleine durch die explodierenden Gase geschädigt worden. Todesursache war eine Luft/Gasembolie.
    Notes: Summary Case report on a suicide with a gas pistol loaded with 8 mm blank cartridges. A 58-year-old male shot himself in the right temple and then in the back of the neck. The contact shot wounds showed large wound cavities with interspersed powder particles. The soft tissues were injured solely by the pressure of the exploding powder. Death was due to an air/gas embolism in the right ventricle of the heart.

    Notes: Summary The effect of a long-term administration of furosemide (2×30 mg/day for 3 weeks) on platelet α2-adrenoceptor density and the fraction of high-affinity binding sites, as well as on platelet aggregation induced by adrenaline and ADP, was studied ex vivo in 8 normotensive volunteers. For comparison the in vitro effect of furosemide on platelet aggregation was also evaluated. Furosemide decreased α2-adrenoceptor-density (P〈0.01) and the fraction of high-affinity binding sites (P〈0.05). Adrenaline-induced platelet aggregation was not altered ex vivo and in vitro. Furosemide inhibited ADP-induced platelet aggregation ex vivo (P〈0.05) and in parallel in vitro (P〈0.01) in a dose-dependent manner. The reduction of the density of α2-adrenoceptors in the high affinity state may be of functional importance for the hemodynamic effects of furosemide. The inhibitory effect of furosemide on ADP-induced platelet aggregation ex vivo and in vitro, which is not related to the effects on adrenoceptors, seems to involve direct effects of furosemide on platelet function. It remains to be seen whether the latter effect is of clinical importance.
