A Comparison of Techniques for Collecting Skin Microbiome Samples: Swabbing Versus Tape-Stripping

2 Oct 2018

Abstract excerpt

The swabbing and tape-stripping methods have traditionally been used for collecting skin microbiome samples for skin bacterial analysis, although no reports have compared the outcome of these methods for collecting skin bacteria. Our purpose was to show the differences in microbial composition between samples collected using the swabbing and tape-stripping methods, by both the next generation sequencing and...
