Description of original award (Fiscal Year 2010, $462,492)
This project will provide the forensic science community with a set of protocols and reagents that will permit accurate estimates of PMI beyond the timeframe that is currently possible with existing methods. The researchers have shown that certain biological species of Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) degrade at different rates in a time dependent fashion. This time dependent change in the ratio of the selected RNA species enables the estimation of PMI.
