Microbial succession after death: genomic and culture-based insights from external sampling sites in forensic science
22 Aug 2025
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Post-mortem microbial communities (microbiota and microbiome) have emerged as promising tools for forensic investigations, particularly in estimating the post-mortem interval (PMI). However, experimental variability in sampling protocols, analytical methods, and reporting standards has limited the comparability and reproducibility of findings across studies. METHODS: A systematic review was conducted...
