Abstract

Postmortem biochemistry is becoming more important in forensic pathology. Involving of biochemical investigations full autopsy can provide to detect divers pathologic conditions such as antemortem acute/chronic diseases, fatal metabolic conditions, survival time, postmortem biochemical changes, and the source of analytes. Biochemical tests may be usefull where the morphological examinations cannot lighten the fatal pathology (Diabetes Mellitus (DM), alcoholic ketoacidosis, sepsis, electrolytic disorders). This article presents the analytes that may be useful in forensic medicine upon the studies performed and published in the literature. Key words: Postmortem biochemistry, postmortem chemistry, forensic chemistry
