“…As pointed out by Gunn et al (2014) and Leake (2013), the forensic interest in DNA goes well beyond the standard approaches to DNA profiling that represent the current stateof-the-art in many contemporary legal systems, and this raises questions as to how new forms of data ought to be dealt with in an operational perspective (Milot et al, 2013). Although these frontiers topics clarify the extent to which there is room for exciting future research in this area, it should not distract us from the fact that even in the current state of forensic practice, there are hurdles and pressing topics that ask for efficient answers.…”

“…Microbial forensics has become a useful adjunct to investigations of bioterrorism and biocrime [13] and its potential has been recognized as an alternative plan to overcome limitations of current forensic science, such as a deficiency in blood, tissue, semen, or saliva at the site of crime scene investigation. Bacterial DNA analysis will not replace standard DNA identification, but could become a complimentary technique for when standard DNA identification provides only limited information [1]. Bacterial components recovered from computer keyboards following use allows for adequate characterization and comparison of bacterial community, and surfaces that are touched can be linked to individual skin surface [14].…”

“…Skin is the largest organ of human body, and provides ideal habitats for various microorganisms. Among them, hand is one of the parts in direct contact with outer environment, and thus can leave various potential evidences such as fingerprints and micro-evidences at crime scenes [1]. Microorganisms in the hands include bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoa.…”
