[Use of microbiological data for the purposes of forensic medical examination].

The study objective was to describe the formation of forensic microbiological examination as an analysis of a new type, defined as the detection and registration of reliably measured environmental and physiological changes within the microbial community of corpse in order to substantiate the possibility of using microbiological parameters to establish the prescription of death coming. It has been determined that the knowledge of the patterns of interaction of a human and his corpse with endogenous and exogenous flora provides the basis for solving a number of traditional and new application-oriented expert tasks and the allocation of such a variety of forensic examination as forensic microbiological examination. Endogenous and exogenous human flora and its interaction with living and dead biological tissues are the objects of this kind of examination, and the dynamic patterns of such interaction are the subject of study. One of the initial relevant tasks of forensic microbiological examination consists in development of methods, adequate for the expert task to be solved, choice of the research «target», «models» for comparative analysis and medium, adequate for task in hand, as well as certification of these methods and standardization of assessment criteria for the obtained results.
