Abstract (EN): Following Meurs and Szykula's comment on our published article titled "Promising blood-derived biomarkers for estimation of the postmortem interval", we recognize the importance of the issues raised, but we would like to emphasize that these contain some misinterpretations and that most of the points were already discussed in depth in our manuscript particularly in the conclusion section. We also aim to highlight further data regarding the difficulties of postmortem interval estimation.
