Postmortem succession of gut microbial communities in human cadavers

2017-02-05

Abstract excerpt

The human microbiome has demonstrated importance for health and functioning in living individuals. However the fate of the microbiome after death is poorly understood. In addition to a better understanding of microbe-mediated decomposition processes, postmortem succession of human-associated microbial communities has been suggested as a possible forensic tool for estimating time since death, or postmortem interval...
