Abstract
The first atopic study (n=12) assessed the safety and effectiveness of a lotion containing microbial extract on patients with atopic dermatitis. A subsequent randomised, double-blinded and placebo-controlled medical research with a larger number of participants (n=142) further demonstrated that the group using lotion, including the microbial extract, had strengthened skin barrier, less redness and fewer participants needing atopy medication as winter progressed, compared to the placebo group. These studies support the previous in vitro and in vivo findings, suggesting that natural microbial exposure can balance the immune system and strengthen the barrier function in atopic dermatitis.
