Abstract: For the purpose of evaluation of fibrin formation for diagnosis the antemortem injuries, 45 cases of gunshot wound sections were observed by MSB staining compared with the SEM. The results showed that the SEM is better than MSB staining method to determine fibrin. Fibrin was found in all of the antemortem gunshot wounds as well as postmortem gunshot wounds within 10 minutes after death under the SEM.It was showed that fibrin can be a marker of antemortem injuries. The morphologic changes and distributions of fibrin were described in detail.The differentiation of fibrin formed in the postmortem gunshot wounds from that formed in the antemortem gunshot wounds is discussed.

Key words: antemortem and postmortem gunshot wounds, fibrin, MSB staining, Scanning electron microscope
