Lactobacilli Dominance and Vaginal pH: Why Is the Human Vaginal Microbiome Unique?
The human vaginal microbiome is dominated by bacteria from the genus Lactobacillus, which create an acidic environment thought to protect women against sexually transmitted pathogens and opportunistic infections. Strikingly, lactobacilli dominance appears to be unique to humans; while the relative a...
