According to new research; scientists with an analysis machine smell our palms they can detect our genera with a high degree of accuracy.

In fact, the study with a total of 60 participants went so well; 96.67% rate correct guess finished. So how is all this done and how can we achieve our sex just by smelling our palms?

Our hands give off a chemical odor made up of ‘volatile chemical compounds’.

Volatiles in our hands emit odors that contain a chemical profile and evaporate from the skin. Sometimes we get oily secretions, can be left on the surface with fingerprints and DNA traces. In the research based on this fragrance, very interesting results emerged.

In the study, which involved 30 men and 30 women, odor samples were taken from their palms. The research team, led by biochemist Chantrell Frazier, wiped the palms with a cotton pad for at least an hour after washing. Then the scent samples using mass spectrometry analyzed and applied various statistical methods to see which odor was which gender.

96%. Although 67 percent accurate predictions were made, Frazier and his team were able to improve and use the steps. to validate statistical techniques He says they need to do more research.

There may be new developments in forensic medicine.

In addition, researchers; After the vehicle is verified, try to find the perpetrators of things like robbery or when biological evidence is insufficient He predicts it could be used for gender prediction, and that human scent could be a defining feature in an investigation, even if no physical fingerprints or DNA were found.

But forensics can be wrong, mistakes are common, and samples can be distorted. In such case gender misclassified Thinking of two people can create a lot of chaos.
