Abstract

Introduction: Dysfunction of keratinocytes contributes to a weakened skin barrier and impaired wound healing capability. Evidence suggests that probiotic supplementation can lead to improved skin function in vitro and in vivo. The Lab4 probiotic consortium comprises of two strains of Lactobacillus s...
