Abstract: ObjectiveBurial is associated with environmental effects such as the contamination of ground or surface water with biological materials generated during the decomposition process. Therefore, bacterial communities in leachates originating from the decomposing bovine carcasses were investigated.MethodsTo understand the process of bovine (Hanwoo) carcass decomposition, we simulated burial using a lab-scale reactor with a volume of 5.15 m3. Leachate samples from 3 carcasses were collected using a peristaltic pump … Show more

“…Clostridium species are ubiquitous anaerobic putrefactive bacteria that can be found in various environments and are potentially pathogenic [54,63,64]. Several decomposition studies have reported that the increase in abundance of Clostridium is due to the anaerobic layer that develops around a carcass during decomposition [23,65]. Clostridium species play an important role in biomass digestion as they synthesize a wide variety of extracellular enzymes which aids in the degradation of various compounds, such as carbohydrates, amino acids, alcohols, amino acids, or purines [23,[65][66][67][68].…”

“…Soil microorganisms play an important role in the decomposition process as they synthesize proteases in response to an animal organic matter supply and can degrade prion proteins in vitro [20,21]. Microbial communities are important in maintaining soil quality due to their involvement in organic matter dynamics, nutrient cycling, pathogenic spread and decomposition [16,17,[22][23][24]. Several studies have demonstrated, metabolites from decomposing carcasses can affect the land and surrounding environment [16,25].…”
