Diethyl ether was found in samples of the blood, urine, and lung from a fire victim, which illustrates the value of searching post mortem samples for highly volatile residues of possible arson accelerants.
A full evaporation headspace technique with capillary GC and ITD: a means for quantitating volatile organic compounds in biological samples.

There was a linear relationship between peak area and sample size, which indicates that the conditions of full evaporation were met and that the matrix effect was negated and the method enabled quantitative tests of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in blood and postmortem tissue samples.
