A Review on the Important Consequences of Diatoms related to Drowning Cases

In drowning instances, diatom testing is a crucial method for the purpose of determining the cause of death. As the signs of ante-mortem drowning dissipate quickly once degradation occurs, diatom testing serves an important role in identifying and verifying drowning deaths. Diatoms can be employed in forensic geoscience criminal investigations due of their broad distribution in water, great biodiversity, habitat specialization, and good conservation potential.. Existing diatoms in tissue samples can be extracted and identified as confirmation that specific diatoms were immersed and employed on-site. The spread of diatoms in a given place is also influenced by temperature and pH fluctuations. The accuracy of diatom testing in resolving drowning cases was established by the discovery of diatom differences in both water and tissue samples. The intelligence inspector and team should continually be thinking of new ways and means for extracting and recognizing proof of diatoms as soon as possible.
