[Method of corpses' tissues impedance study]
1Petrozavodsk State University, Petrozavodsk, Russia.
Objective:
To describe the method of corpses' tissues impedance study. Study objects were corpses of male and female humans, model biological objects (pigs) with a known postmortem period; a study subject - tissues impedance indicators. Diagnostic areas were skin/musculocutaneous flap, cartilaginous tissue and tendon. The proposed method allows to methodologically more correctly record the dynamics of whole corpse's tissues impedance in a long postmortem period. The use of model biological objects allows: to standardize the data obtained from the experiment on such criteria as date of death, age of the object, thickness of subcutaneous adipose tissue and a number of other characteristics; to expand the database of impedance indicators and carry out a full statistical analysis thereof.
