Human odors depend on many extrinsic (such as food or clothing) and intrinsic factors - localized or systemic.
In recent years, microbes responsible for localized malodors - bad breath caused by oral bacteria and axillary odor - have been mapped by using next generation sequencing approaches. However, intestinal microbes responsible for systemic malodor (whole-body and extraoral halitosis), remain to be identified.
Our preliminary analysis of culture-, PCR- and 16S-RNA-based data donated by MEBO and PATM community members show that there are no easy answers.
