Abstract:
Estimation of postmortem interval(PMI)plays a crucial role in forensic study and identifica-tion work. Because of the unique anatomy location, vitreous humor is considered to be used for estima-ting PMI, which has aroused interest among scholars, and some researches have been carried out. The detection techniques of vitreous humor are constantly developed and improved which have been gradually applied in forensic science, meanwhile, the study of PMI estimation using vitreous humor is updated rapidly. This paper reviews various techniques and instruments applied to vitreous humor detection, such as ion selective electrode, capillary ion analysis, spectroscopy, chromatography, nano-sensing technology, automatic biochemical analyser, flow cytometer, etc., as well as the related research progress on PMI es-timation in recent years. In order to provide a research direction for scholars and promote a more accu-rate and efficient application in PMI estimation by vitreous humor analysis, some inner problems are also analysed in this paper.
