Comparative Ocular Microbial Communities in Humans with and without Blepharitis

27 Jul 2012

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: The aims of our study were to compare the ocular microbial communities of humans with and without blepharitis in an attempt to elucidate which microorganisms may cause blepharitis. METHODS: Bacterial 16S rRNA genes of eyelash and tear samples from seven blepharitis patients and four healthy controls were sequenced using a pyrosequencing method, and their bacterial community structures were compared...
