For several months, Dr. Murray's attorneys have asked that fluids from two syringes and IV bags be tested. The reason why? They want to determine how much anesthetic (Propofol and lidocaine) they contained. And time is of the essence! Attorneys claim liquid in one of the syringes has now turned into salt.
