after the colin explodes in the body how long is it before the poison goes thru the body and die?

First of all, "Colin" is a man's name.  The body part is a "colon", which is the large intestine.\n\nA ruptured colon is a serious problem because contamination from inside the colon will spread into the abdomen.  An abscess, which is a localized infection, can occur, or the infection may become widespread.  \n\nHow long it takes to become fatal depends on how much poop gets into the abdomen, the overall medical condition of the patient, and what treatments are instituted.\n\nDeath could occur within hours, or it may takes days.  Of course, with treatment (surgical repair plus medication to kill infection), it need not be fatal at all.

the bit where the hero gets killed.

Well, technically they can but usually only for about 6-8 minutes after death.  See, we define people as being dead when their heart stops beating, but for a few minutes if we can get their heart started again they'll be fine.  After about 8 minutes brain damage starts to occur, and I think somewhere between 15 and 30 minutes it becomes hopeless.  Those times will be a bit longer if the person is really cold though.

Can be anywhere from 2 weeks to 6 months. Without blood tests pretty quick. Toxicology takes awhile.

It depends on how long you have taken it.  The worst is over in about 3 days.

Depends on what you mean by "food poisoning".   Everyone here assumes that you are talking about staph contamination of food, but there are several common bacteria that can contaminate food, and each has a different time line and course of symptoms, from almost immediately until days later.  \n\nNow if you are talking about someone adding poison to food, that again depends on which poison, from immediate to days, weeks or years later.

Disposition of metronidazole in the body is similar for both oral and intravenous dosage forms, with an average elimination half-life in healthy humans of eight hours.\n\nSince half life is 8 hours it would take about 16 hours to clear out of your system.

Not all poisons are proteins by any means.  \n\nThe answer really would depend on the poison, but for most of them, they would be rendered non-poisonous after they had burned.\n\n(That doesn't mean it would  be a good idea to burn poisons in a barrel in your backyard or anything,)

Temperature start to drop immediately after death, then progressively keeps going down at a rate of 2 degrees Celsius per hour until reaches the room temperature, at this point the flesh start to decompose unless is kept in a refrigerated drawer, normally yes is possible to determine the approximate time from death if is less than 6 hours..☺

bad, all the blood goes to it, it shouldnt constantly last for more then like 3-4 hours

120-day life span, an RBC makes about 75,000 round trips between the lungs and tissues. At the end of its life, it returns to the bone marrow where it is removed by the reticuloendothelial system (particularly the liver, bone marrow, and spleen). Despite the constant destruction and production of RBCs (about 300 billion are destroyed and replaced each day), the body is able to maintain a fairly constant number

A half-life is the amount of time it takes for the concentration of a substance in the body to be reduced by half.

That would require decaffeinating.  I'm not prepared to go to such an extreme.  But since I know that almost every other chemical flushes out of your body in 24-72 hours.  I would go with 24-72 hours!

generally it should only take a few days.  The blood just needs to get re-absorbed.  Don't go back to that place,\n\nThere really aren't any remedies.  It's just blood that's not in the veins anymore and has to get re-absorbed into the body.\n\nIf it's painful (it shoudn't be) just put some ice on it for about 10-15 minutes.

There are two things to think about in this case:\n1) Did the doctors correctly identify the poison?\n2) Was Litvinenko treated soon enough to prevent major tissue and organ damage?\n\nI'll assume that the doctors are right and that Thallium is the poison that was used in this case. Even in that case, the Thallium was in Litvinenko's system for quite some time pre-antidote. Depending on his metabolic rate, his level of fitness, and dozens of other factors specific to him, the antidote may have been given too late (not the doctors' fault, just due to circumstances). In that case, it might not yet be clear whether Mr. Litvinenko's body is recovering or sinking further towards failure. The interplay of death and regeneration of different tissue types will be a big player in this case.\n\nAlso, that 50/50 value is a guess, not a hard number. It's just meant to represent that there is uncertainty at the moment.

I see you asked this question 7 minutes ago.  antidotes only work if you take them within 10 minutes of taking poison.  enjoy your last 3 minutes!\n\nWendy\nx

You bleed to death internally.  It takes about 10-20 seconds.
