Forensic Entomology

The scientific study of insects or other arthropods colonizing dead bodies during criminal investigations is known as forensic entomology (particularly in cases of unexplained death and to determine the time of death) (Amendt et al., 2011). To determine the exact moment of death by examining the insects that have colonized a body, forensic entomology ...

Thick quilt may severely impact the estimation of postmortem interval using forensic entomology-based methods -two case reports.

Journal of Forensic and Legal Medicine, 2023
This paper introduces two indoor cases in China, characterized by bodies lying on a mattress, covered with thick quilts and wearing clothes. There were obvious deviation in the estimated minimum postmortem interval (PMImin) of the corpses using ...

Forensic entomology

Naturwissenschaften, 2004
Necrophagous insects are important in the decomposition of cadavers. The close association between insects and corpses and the use of insects in medicocriminal investigations is the subject of forensic entomology. The present paper reviews the historical background of this discipline, important postmortem processes, and discusses the scientific basis ...
