METHOD FOR LATE POSTMORTAL DETECTION OF PRESCRIPTION OF DEATH COMING Russian patent published in 2010 - IPC A61B5/117 G01N33/52 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention refers to medicine, namely to forensic medicine, and can be used for late postmortal detection of prescription of death coming. The optical density of vitreous body is measured. The prescription of death coming is calculated provided a corpse kept at an ambient temperature +10°C to +20°C by formula: PDC=1.975+5.641×OD₃₃₅+13.924×OD₄₀₅-16.023×OD₄₇₅+6.938×OD₅₄₅, where PDC is the prescription of death coming, (days); OD₃₃₅ is the optical density of vitreous body at wavelength 335 nm; OD₄₀₅ is the optical density of vitreous body at wavelength 405 nm; OD₄₇₅ is the optical density of vitreous body at wavelength 475 nm; OD₅₄₅ is the optical density of vitreous body at wavelength 545 nm, and at ambient temperature +21°C to +30°C by formula: PDC=1.129+136.486×OD₃₆₅-134.091×OD₃₇₅+10.269×OD₄₀₅, where PDC is the prescription of death coming, (days); OD₃₆₅ is the optical density of vitreous body at wavelength 365 nm; OD₃₇₅ is the optical density of vitreous body at wavelength 375 nm; OD₄₀₅ is the optical density of vitreous body at wavelength 405 nm.

EFFECT: method is accessible, simple and characterised by high accuracy.
