Temperature and pH dynamics during carcass decomposition and implications for disease management

Temperature and pH dynamics during carcass decomposition and implications for disease management

Abstract Infectious diseases in wildlife threaten not only those species but also domestic animals and human health, necessitating strategies to prevent pathogen spread. The natural decomposition of carcasses may lead to pathogen inactivation due to associated increases in temperature and changes in...
