“…Tissue specific to the vagina could be informative in rape cases. Nakanishi et al (59) showed that Streptococcus salivarius and Streptococcus mutans could be detected in mock forensic saliva samples and were not present in other forensically relevant tissue sources. Choi et al (60) had similar findings for S. salivarius.…”

cMicrobial forensics has been defined as the discipline of applying scientific methods to the analysis of evidence related to bioterrorism, biocrimes, hoaxes, or the accidental release of a biological agent or toxin for attribution purposes. Over the past 15 years, technology, particularly massively parallel sequencing, and bioinformatics advances now allow the characterization of microorganisms for a variety of human forensic applications, such as human identification, body fluid characterization, postmortem interval estimation, and biocrimes involving tracking of infectious agents. Thus, microbial forensics should be more broadly described as the discipline of applying scientific methods to the analysis of microbial evidence in criminal and civil cases for investigative purposes.

“…Ethnicity determination can be achieved thorough the study of teeth. Various studies over a long period of time have been conducted on this topic [66,67,68,69]. For example, there are certain features common to different populations: Europeans have a flat lingual surface on the incisor teeth, while Japanese people have ridges on the lingual surface on the incisor teeth, and both Asians and Americans have a shovel-shaped appearance on the incisors [28].…”
