Brief summary
This single center, randomized, 15-day clinical trial is being conducted to assess the changes to the skin microbiome of induced wounds on the back in approximately 35 healthy adult subjects aged 18-55 years, with Fitzpatrick Skin Types I - III. Microbiome and skin physiology assessments will be completed.
Interventions
Bandage applied daily to wounded site for 14 days
Bandage applied daily to wounded site for 14 days
Bandage applied daily to wounded site for 14 days
bandage with 0.8% Benzalkonium Chloride (BZK) applied daily to wounded site for 14 days
This test site will remain intact (not wounded) and not treated with a bandage, serving as a negative control site.
This test site will be wounded but will not be treated with a bandage, serving as the positive control site.

Redness: Wound Area Oxyhemoglobin Level- Baseline (Day 0)
Quantification of oxy- and deoxy-hemoglobin at the wound area was achieved from apparent absorption spectrum acquired from diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) at the site. Absorption spectra of fully oxygenated and deoxygenated hemoglobin molecules were employed to quantify the contribution of each molecule to the total apparent absorption of the wounded skin in the spectral range of 560 nm -- 700 nm. The numbers of oxyhemoglobin are in arbitrary unit and higher values describe higher erythema levels.
