Identical twins are also called monozygotic twins which originate from the same zygote that possesses the same genetic make-up. To discriminate between identical monozygotic twins, short tandem repeats has not been found effective, therefore, various techniques, including next-generation sequencing (NGS), are applied. Monozygotic twins can be identified through germ line genomes, through speech using deep learning networks, and through epigenetic analysis. Fingerprint analysis has also been used to distinguish between identical twins, as human beings have unique fingerprints. Two distinct levels of fingerprint are used to distinguish between monozygotic twins based upon the differences in the minutiae points. Examination of the methylation pattern of the genome has an enormous potential to differentiate between identical twins, as the methylation of DNA occurs uniquely to each individual. This article offers an insight into the latest methods and techniques used for the differentiation between the identical twins.
