Either way, it seems the old lore that a dandruffy scalp just needs a thorough " cleaning" might be a little flaky.

" Really, really interestingly, we found there was approximately 100 times more of this bacteria on a dry or a dandruff scalp than there was on a healthy scalp."

They sequenced DNA from the heads of people with healthy hair and others with dry, dandruffy scalps—none of whom had used antidandruff shampoo within the last six months.

他们对发健康的人和皮干燥、皮屑多的人的部进行了 DNA 测序——这些人在过去六个月内都没有使用过去屑发水。

但 Murphy 说，我们的目标可能是制造一种更温和的产品，而是像当今大多数去屑发水那样用抗真菌化合物来消灭皮真菌。
