Abstract

This paper presents, a strategy to identify persons based on measurement of human body odour from Human Sweat. To Approach this concept, the common volatile organic compounds (VOC) determined in the sweat of person of age 30 & above by using Master GC-Headspace Technique. The proposed method was capable to identify persons either with or without using deodorant irrespective of their eating habits.
