[Determination of the time of dealth after dismemberment. Muscle electrophoretic criteria for estimating the early postmortal period in cadaver parts (author's transl)].
Proteolytic fission products that allow estimation of the time of death can be demonstrated by electrofocussing of cadaver muscles already within the first 5 days postmortem. The fractionation rate, which progressively increases the later the tissue is examined, is based on the number of fractions resulting from protein decomposition. Some fractions appear relatively late, while others occur with increasing frequency and can be used as criteria to determine the time of death. This examination procedure can be used as a method for estimating the time of death in cadaver parts.
