Investigations on the mechanism of adipocere formation and its relation to other biochemical reactions.
Takatori T. Takatori T. Forensic Sci Int. 1996 Jun 28;80(1-2):49-61. doi: 10.1016/0379-0738(96)01927-5. Forensic Sci Int. 1996. PMID: 8690322 Review.
In the adipocere, which is one of the postmortem changes, some specific fatty acids possessing higher melting points, together with soap, play an important role in the formation of adipocere. ...Moreover, slight amounts of 10-oxostearic and 10-oxopalmi …

Early adipocere formation: a case report and review of literature.
Mohan Kumar TS, Monteiro FN, Bhagavath P, Bakkannavar SM. Mohan Kumar TS, et al. J Forensic Leg Med. 2009 Nov;16(8):475-7. doi: 10.1016/j.jflm.2009.07.004. Epub 2009 Aug 21. J Forensic Leg Med. 2009. PMID: 19782320 Review.
Adipocere formation replaces the putrefactive changes, when the body lies buried in shallow, moist, clay, soiled grave or it is thrown into cess pools or submerged in water. As the progression of putrefaction is arrested, the facial features and wounds are preserved …

Adipocere formation in biofilms as a first step in soft tissue preservation.
Mähler B, Janssen K, Tahoun M, Tomaschek F, Schellhorn R, Müller CE, Bierbaum G, Rust J. Mähler B, et al. Sci Rep. 2022 Jun 16;12(1):10122. doi: 10.1038/s41598-022-14119-8. Sci Rep. 2022. PMID: 35710834 Free PMC article.
In rare cases soft tissues were preserved by pyrite. We assume that adipocere, as the shaping component, might be a preliminary stage in the pyritisation of soft tissues under anaerobic conditions. Using high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to ultraviolet and mas …

Adipocere Formation in Subtropical Climate of Northern India: A Retrospective Study.
Sikary AK, Behera C, Murty OP. Sikary AK, et al. J Forensic Sci. 2019 Jan;64(1):260-263. doi: 10.1111/1556-4029.13847. Epub 2018 Jun 25. J Forensic Sci. 2019. PMID: 29940696
The time duration of recovery from the time of death was from 12 h to 7 days 12 h. In 10 cases, adipocere formation was seen within 2 days, and in four male cases among them, the adipocere formed within a day. Most of the bodies showing adipocere formation wi …

Arid Climate Adipocere-The Importance of Microenvironment.
Byard RW, Simpson E, Forbes SL. Byard RW, et al. J Forensic Sci. 2020 Jan;65(1):327-329. doi: 10.1111/1556-4029.14152. Epub 2019 Aug 9. J Forensic Sci. 2020. PMID: 31397891
After examination, it was revealed that the smell had not been due to recent decomposition but to adipocere. The cause of death was listed as "undetermined" and a suggested date of death as "unknown." Although adipocere usually requires a damp environment or submers …

Adipocere formation--the result of insufficient microbial degradation.
Schoenen D, Schoenen H. Schoenen D, et al. Forensic Sci Int. 2013 Mar 10;226(1-3):301.e1-6. doi: 10.1016/j.forsciint.2013.01.023. Epub 2013 Feb 13. Forensic Sci Int. 2013. PMID: 23415161
Microorganisms need certain environmental conditions to be able to grow and to degrade organic substances of tissue. Conditions that disturb degradation result in adipocere. Adipocere is a predominantly whitish, crumbly, inodorous, fatty feeling lipid bulk, which is …

First evidence of terrestrial ambrein formation in human adipocere.
von der Lühe B, Mayes RW, Thiel V, Dawson LA, Graw M, Rowland SJ, Fiedler S. von der Lühe B, et al. Sci Rep. 2019 Dec 4;9(1):18370. doi: 10.1038/s41598-019-54730-w. Sci Rep. 2019. PMID: 31797886 Free PMC article.
Here we report on the surprising occurrence of ambrein in human adipocere. Adipocere is a waxy substance formed post-mortem during incomplete anaerobic decomposition of soft tissues. Adipocere samples obtained from grave exhumations were analysed using gas ch …
