简要总结
To visualize and characterize the presence of skin microbiota as biofilm on healthy and acneic skin using biopsy samples of the back.To identify acne/phylotype-specific transformations in the immune microenvironments using biopsy samples of the back from healthy and acneic volunteers. To detect microbial species and phylotypes within the back biopsy from healthy and acneic volunteers. To isolate and collect the skin microbes for construction of in vitro skin biofilm models. To profile the skin microbiome diversity of healthy and acne skin (face and back) using whole metagenome sequencing
