Data on elemental content in twenty tissues/organs collected from twenty cases of instantaneous accidental death of normal adults are presented.The samples were analysed for Na, K, Rb, Ca, Mg,Fe, Mn, Cr, Cu, Zn,Pb, Te andP. All the elements except P were determined by the technique of atomic absorption spectrophotometry. Estimation of P was carried out by the "Molybdenum Blue" method.
