Preliminary characterization of the normal microbiota of the human vulva using cultivation-independent methods

23 Jan 2007

Abstract excerpt

The objective of this study was to perform a preliminary characterization of the microbial populations of the normal human vulva. Genomic DNA was isolated from samples of the labia majora and labia minora from four healthy women, and sequences of bacterial 16S rRNA genes in each were determined. The sequences were compared with those of known bacterial species to classify the numerically abundant populations in...
