Alternative use of Bacillus subtilis spores: protection against environmental oxidative stress in human normal keratinocytes
Abstract Inorganic trivalent arsenic is a major environmental pollutant and exposure to human results in many pathologies, including keratosis and carcinoma. Here, we analyzed the effects of B. subtilis spores on human normal keratinocytes in the presence of sodium arsenite oxidative stress. Pre-tre...
