  • Title: [Evaluation of normal aerobic skin flora (author's transl)].
    Author: Crémieux A, Cazac JL.
    Journal: Ann Microbiol (Paris); 1980; 131B(1):59-68. PubMed ID: 7458112.
    Abstract:
    This work attempts the quantitative and qualitative evaluation of the bacterial population from two different areas: elbow and groin. Bacteria are recovered using the method of Williamson and Kligman modified by Fleurette and Transy. Aerobic flora is determined from bacterial counts on various media. Results show a density of 475 to 630 bacteria/cm2 for elbow, and 1.9 to 2.4 X 10(5) bacteria/cm2 for groin (geometric and arithmetic mean, respectively). Percentages of different species and types are calculated, and skin population is represented by a circular diagram.
