Abstract

Diagnosis of the time of death (DTD) is a pressing problem of forensic medicine. For defining the criteria of DTD by impedance plethysmography, electric conductivity of tissues was studied in 45 corpses of male subjects aged 18-44 years who died from craniocerebral injuries. Autolytic changes were characterized by a wave-like pattern, with periods of stability replaced by necrobiotic processes. This allows recording residual activity of surviving cells and tissues in a corpse during the early postmortem period. Based on these data, a model of postmortem changes in tissues can be created for DTD.
