The skin microbiome has become a hot field of research in the last few years. The emergence of next-generation sequencing has given unprecedented insights into the impact and involvement of microbiota in skin conditions. More and more cosmetics contain probiotics or bacteria as an active ingredient, with or without scientific data. This research is also acknowledged by the textile industry. There has been a more holistic approach on how the skin and textile microbiome interacts and how they influence the pH, moisture content and odour generation. To date, most of the ingredients have a broad-spectrum antibacterial action. This manuscript covers the current research and industry developments in the field of skin and textiles. It explores the nature of antimicrobial finishing in textiles which can disrupt the skin microbiome, and the benefits of more natural and microbiome friendly therapies to combat skin conditions, malodour and skin infection.
在过去几年中,皮肤微生物群已成为一个热门研究领域。新一代测序技术的出现,让人们对微生物群在皮肤疾病中的影响和作用有了前所未有的深入了解。越来越多的化妆品含有益生菌或细菌作为活性成分,无论有无科学数据支持。该研究也得到了纺织行业的认可。对于皮肤微生物群与纺织品微生物群如何相互作用以及它们如何影响皮肤pH值、水分含量和气味产生,人们采取了更全面的研究方法。迄今为止,大多数成分都具有广谱抗菌作用。本文涵盖了皮肤与纺织品领域的当前研究和行业发展情况。它探讨了纺织品抗菌整理的本质,这种整理可能会破坏皮肤微生物群,以及采用更天然且对微生物群友好的疗法来对抗皮肤疾病、异味和皮肤感染的益处。
