Microbiome Testing:  An Integrated Multidisciplinary Approach

Human skin is a complex and dynamic ecosystem inhabited by a multitude of microorganisms, collectively referred to as skin microbiota. The genomes of organisms present on the skin surface are referred as skin microbiome. The investigation of skin microbiome by NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) techniques allows to identify all the bacterial genes present at a given time, their relative proportion and, in turn characterise the skin microbiota.

Eurofins Cosmetics & Personal Care applies a multidisciplinary, integrated approach to study cosmetic products impacts to skin microbiota by combining clinical evaluation, instrumental analysis, metagenomic analysis and claims.
