Abstract excerpt
Axillary osmidrosis (AO) is caused by apocrine glands secretions that are converted to odouriferous compounds by bacteria. A potential link between AO and wet earwax type has been implicated by phenotype-based analysis. Recently, a non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) 538G> A (Gly1...
