a preliminary study of forensic entomology in medellín, colombia.	this is the first report of an ongoing study of insect succession on carrion carried out in medellín, colombia, using pigs (sus scrofa) as a model to determine the insect sequence over 207 days. during this period, 2314 insects belonging to the following orders and families were collected: diptera: calliphoridae, muscidae, piophilidae, sarcophagidae, syrphidae, otitidae; hymenoptera: apidae, formicidae, halictidae, mutilidae, vespidae; coleoptera: staphylinidae, histeridae, carabidae, scarabaeid ...	2001	11457610
[prevalence of taenia solium antibodies in humans and in pigs in an endemic area of colombia].	cysticercosis (cc) caused by taenia solium in humans and in pigs is endemic in many rural communities in developing countries. the use of western blot assays (wb) to determine t. solium antibodies has become the best serological tool available to date for identifying positive individuals in field conditions.	2003	12717645
successional behavior and occurrence matrix of carrion-associated arthropods in the urban area of medellín, colombia.	forensic entomology is a scientific tool applied to the study of insect or arthropod succession at the scene of a crime or that associated with an accident or natural death. interpreting this succession provides information to determine minimum and maximum limits of the postmortem interval (pmi), that is, the time between death and the discovery of the body. this study was carried out during the rainy season, from 27 october to 12 december 2002 in an urban area of the city of medellín, colombia. ...	2005	15813558

initial study of arthropods succession and pig carrion decomposition in two freshwater ecosystems in the colombian andes.	entomological succession and trophic roles of arthropods associated with different stages of carcass decomposition were studied to estimate the post-mortem submersion interval in two freshwater ecosystems in the colombian andes, at an altitude of 2614m. pig carcasses were employed as models placed 68m apart, one in a stream (lotic) and another in an artificial lake (lentic). decomposition time to skeletal remains was 74 days in the lake and 80 days in the stream. six phases of decomposition were ...	2011	21741189
