Internal organs also decay in a known order, and the ME uses this pattern to estimate time of death. The intestines, which hold many bacterial species, decay first, followed by the liver, lungs, brain, and then the kidneys. Stomach decomposition is often delayed because the stomach may contain food mixed with a significant amount of acid that slows the growth of the bacteria and may even kill many of them. Lastly, the uterus or prostate succumbs to invading bacteria.
