Microbiome
Ready to Wear
The surface of our body is home to a large number of microorganisms that are beneficial to our health. Cosmetics should not disturb the natural microbiome of the skin. For this reason, a team at Evonik led by microbiologist Stefan Pelzer has developed a model that can be used to test important ingredients
