Scanning electron microscopic evidence of bacterial overgrowth in intertrigo

A scanning electron microscopic (SEM) study of intertrigo is presented. Marked changes of the keratinocyte surface characteristics and in the number and distribution of bacteria in the various stages of intertrigo are reported. Bacterial overgrowth was significant. This study confirms the value of SEM in the study of the skin surface and in cutaneous microbiology.
