Summary

This is a single-center, exploratory comparative pilot study to identify the most appropriate method for microbial consortia sampling from the skin.

Ten subjects are expected to complete the study at one investigative site in the United States.

The study will consist of 2 visits, Visit 1 (Screening), Visit 2 (Sampling). At Visit 1, subjects will be consented and have their eligibility reviewed. Visit 1 and Visit 2 may be combined into one visit. Visit 1 will involve the informed consent process, screening, and enrollment. Visit 2 will involve sampling of eight (8) test sites on the back with three (3) different sampling methods: swabbing (2 sites/method), cup scrub (2 sites/method), and tape stripping (4 sites/method). All samples will be returned to Kimberly Clark then sent to a laboratory for analysis.
