Diversity of Bacteria at Healthy Human Conjunctiva

13 May 2011

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Ocular surface (OS) microbiota contributes to infectious and autoimmune diseases of the eye. Comprehensive analysis of microbial diversity at the OS has been impossible because of the limitations of conventional cultivation techniques. This pilot study aimed to explore true diversity of human OS microbiota using DNA sequencing-based detection and identification of bacteria. METHODS: Composition of the...
