A synthesis of carcass decomposition studies conducted at a tropical (Aw) taphonomy facility: 2013–2022 [PDF]
Forensic Science International: Synergy, 2023 Decomposition studies have been conducted in several regions of the world, but relatively few have investigated taphonomy in tropical environments. Even fewer have explored carcass decomposition during multiple tropical seasons, leaving the relationships

Study of Root Transparency in Different Postmortem Intervals Using Scanning Electron Microscopy
Diagnostics, 2023 In the fields of forensics, the identification of human remains is a recurrent problem. The estimated age at death is one of the copious criteria to be evaluated. In adult teeth, the height of the root dentin transparency is used to estimate age. However,

Bone Diagenesis in Short Timescales: Insights from an Exploratory Proteomic Analysis
Biology, 2021 The evaluation of bone diagenetic phenomena in archaeological timescales has a long history; however, little is known about the origins of the microbes driving bone diagenesis, nor about the extent of bone diagenesis in short timeframes—such as in ...
