Analysis of postmortem intestinal microbiota successional patterns with application in postmortem interval estimation [PDF]
Abstract Microorganism plays a vital role in the decomposition of vertebrate remains in nature nutrient cycling, where the postmortem microbial succession patterns during decomposition remain unclear. Here, hierarchical clustering based on Manhattan distances analyzed the similarity and difference among postmortem intestine microbial succession

Suitability of miRNA assessment in postmortem interval estimation.
The aim of this review was to explore recent pieces of evidence focused on the use of miRNAs for PMI estimation both in humans and animal experiments, with particular interest on the best miRNAs to use as reference/target markers in different tissues or biological fluids. MiRNAs are innovative biomarkers used in clinical and research field; they appear
