Orfila,né en Espagne et mort à Paris, est considéré comme l'inventeur de la toxicologie. Il s'est acquis une grande réputation par la publication de son Traité de médecine légale, maintes fois réédité dans lequel il expose notamment de nouveaux moyens de détecter l'arsenic. Sa renommée fit de lui un acteur décisif dans le procès Lafarge, célèbre affaire criminelle. Marie Lafarge était en effet accusée d'avoir empoisonné son époux. L'expertise d'Orfila, qui assura avoir trouvé des traces d'arsenic dans le corps de la victime, fut alors déterminante, semblant fournir la preuve d'un empoisonnement criminel.Marie Lafarge fut reconnue coupable, condamnée aux travaux forcés et à l'exposition. Dans ce texte paru un an après le procès, Orfila a inclus des extraits de rapports de l'Académie Royale de la Médecine et de l'Académie des Sciences soutenant ses conclusions sur la détection de l'arsenic, ainsi que sa propre réfutation des arguments de Magendie et Gerdy sur le sujet.
