Abstract :
The human microbiome has been used to
create microbial profiles, which is an intriguing field of
forensic science research that can be used to identify a
person. According to recent research, each person has a
highly customized microbial fingerprint that can be used
in forensics to recognize or connect a person with any
criminal activity. Since this technique is still in its early
stages, using a source tracker to locate the sink
(microbial population) can be useful. On the basis of
phospholipid, DNA, or RNA, microbial fingerprinting
methods are being used to isolate and classify an
individual community of microbes.
