Dissecting the microbial community structure of internal organs during the early postmortem period in a murine corpse model

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Microorganisms distribute and proliferate both inside and outside the body, which are the main mediators of decomposition after death. However, limited information is available on the postmortem microbiota changes of extraintestinal body sites in the early decomposition stage of mammalian corpses. RESULTS: This study investigated microbial composition variations among different organs and the...
