Structure, Function and Diversity of the Healthy Human Microbiome [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2012
Studies of the human microbiome have revealed that even healthy individuals differ remarkably in the microbes that occupy habitats such as the gut, skin and vagina. Much of this diversity remains unexplained, although diet, environment, host genetics and

The Microbiome and the Lung [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of the American Thoracic Society, 2014
Investigation of the human microbiome has become an important field of research facilitated by advances in sequencing technologies. The lung, which is one of the latest body sites being explored for the characterization of human-associated microbial communities, has a microbiome that is suspected to play a substantial role in health and disease.

Effect of commonly used cosmetic preservatives on skin resident microflora dynamics

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Human skin is populated by various microorganisms, the so-called microbiota, such as bacteria, viruses, yeasts, fungi, and archaea. The skin microbiota is in constant contact with the surrounding environment which can alter its eubiotic state.
