Absolute quantification of the living skin microbiome overcomes relic-DNA bias and reveals specific patterns across volunteers

4 Mar 2025

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: As the first line of defense against external pathogens, the skin and its resident microbiota are responsible for protection and eubiosis. Innovations in DNA sequencing have significantly increased our knowledge of the skin microbiome. However, current characterizations do not discriminate between DNA from live cells and remnant DNA from dead organisms (relic DNA), resulting in a combined readout of...
