“…Particularly one application of microbiome forensics, the analysis of biological stains, has witnessed much progress in recent years and may soon be ready for integration in forensic laboratories. The microbes in such samples, typically traces, may reveal information on who was involved, through the identification of the donor(s); the nature of the activities that took place (what), through the examination of the type of cellular material (eg vaginal, oral, skin, saliva); and the time of occurrence (when), through estimation of the time of stain deposition (Figure 1) (7).…”

Recent advances in next-generation sequencing technologies (NGS) coupled with machine learning have demonstrated the potential of microbiome-based analyses in applied areas such as clinical diagnostics and forensic sciences. Particularly in forensics, microbial markers in biological stains left at a crime scene can provide valuable information for the reconstruction of crime scene cases, as they contain information on bodily origin, the time since deposition, and donor(s) of the stain.
