Mathieu Joseph Bonaventure Orfila (1787-1853) was a Spanish physician and scientist, naturalized French, considered by many to be the father of toxicology. He carried basic and practical studies on many theoretical and experimental aspects of physiology, toxicology, and forensic science, and developed appropriate detection methods for small quantities of the most common poisons (mercuric chloride, arsenic, phosphorus, morphine, and hydrogen cyanide), including the particular situation of corpses buried short or long times.
