  • Residual bacteria may protect repairing aged skin by breaking down peroxide

    Where this hypothesis actsAged skin with persistent oxidant production during late repair

    What is proposedReduce host oxidant production before final bacterial clearance

    With whatNot stated in the record

    HowNot stated in the record

    Possible resultPossible prevention of oxidative injury, impaired differentiation, and inflammatory recurrence after clearance
