-[POST-MORTEM] STAGE #5-
.
*following…*
‘pallor mortis’
‘algor mortis’
‘rigor mortis’
‘livor mortis’
.
-this ‘process’ references the ‘breaking down’ of a ‘body’ of a ‘human’ (or other ‘animal’) ‘post-mortem’ (aka ‘after death’)–
.
(in ‘broad terms’, it can be viewed as the ‘de-composition’ of ‘proteins’ + the ‘eventual breakdown’ of the ‘cohesiveness’ between ’tissues’, + the ‘liquefaction’ of most ‘organs’)
(this is caused by the ‘de-composition’ of ‘organic matter’ by ‘bacterial’ or ‘fungal’ digestion, which causes the release of ‘gases’ that infiltrate the body’s ’tissues’, and leads to the ‘deterioration’ of the ’tissues’ + ‘organs’)
.
(the approximate time it takes ‘putrefaction’ to occur is dependent on various factors…)
*INTERNAL FACTORS* –>
*’age’ at which ‘death’ has occurred*
*the overall ‘structure’ + ‘condition’ of the ‘body’*
*the ’cause’ of ‘death’*
*’external injuries’ arising ‘before’ or ‘after’ death*
.
*EXTERNAL FACTORS* –>
*’environmental temperature’*
*’moisture’ + ‘air’ exposure*
*clothing*
*burial factors*
*light exposure*
.
(the first signs of ‘putrefaction’ are signified by a ‘greenish discoloration’ on the outside of the ‘skin’ on the ‘abdominal wall’ corresponding to where the ‘large intestine’ begins, as well as under the ‘surface’ of the ‘liver’)
.
(certain ‘substances’…)
‘examples’ –>
carbolic acid / ‘arsenic’ / ‘strychnine’ / ‘zinc chloride’ / etc
(…can be used to ‘delay’ the ‘process’ of ‘putrefaction’ in various ways based on their ‘chemical make-up’)
.
(‘body farms’ are ‘facilities’ which study the process of ‘human decomposition’ as well as how ‘environmental factors’ affect the ”rate’ of ‘putrefaction”)
