翻译后摘要：在某些情况下，尸蜡的存在可能会阻碍分解和复杂的死后间隔估计。 本文探讨了积温日数与尸蜡早期形成的关系。本实验中使用了60只野生家兔（Oryctolagus cuniculus）尸体;对照组（N = 30）直接放置在地面上，实验组（N = 30）完全浸没在单独桶中的水中。 数据（水和内部体温，pH值和全身评分）收集每100 ADD. Results表明，早期尸蜡与ADD和它的形成淹没仍然是更有可能发生后，630 ADD. Skin脱落促进尸蜡的形成。对照组家兔均未形成尸蜡。这项研究还强调了一个事实，即多种因素影响尸蜡的形成，并建议进一步研究需要进行这一领域。
Abstract: In some circumstances, the presence of adipocere may retard decomposition and complicate postmortem interval estimation. This article explores the correlation between Accumulated Degree Days (ADD) and early stage formation of adipocere. Sixty wild rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) carcasses were used in this experiment; a control group (N = 30) deposited directly on the ground surface and an experimental group (N = 30) completely submersed in water in individual buckets. Data (water and inner body temperature, pH, and total body score) were collected every 100 ADD. Results indicated that early stage adipocere is correlated to ADD and that its formation on submersed remains is more likely to occur after 630 ADD. Skin sloughing promoted the formation of adipocere. No adipocere was formed on any of the control group rabbits. This study also highlights the fact that multiple factors influence adipocere formation and it is suggested that further research needs to be conducted into this area.
