Zusammenfassung:Described is a microorganism which is selected from the group consisting of Lactobacillus paracasei ssp paracasei having DSMZ accession number DSM 17248, Lactobacillus brevis having DSMZ accession number DSM 17247, Lactobacillus brevis having DSMZ accession number DSM 17250, Lactobacillus fermentum having DSMZ accession number DSM 17249, and a mutant thereof, wherein said mutants retain the ability to stimulate the growth of Staphylococcus epidermidis and does not stimulate the growth of Staphylococcus aureus, wherein stimulation is determined by an increase of growth of at least 5% by the respective mutant in an in vitro hole plate assay. Also described are compositions comprising such microorganisms, a method for the production of said compositions and the use of such microorganisms in cosmetic, prophylactic or therapeutic applications. L'invention concerne des micro-organismes qui, dans un premier aspect, peuvent stimuler la croissance de micro-organismes de la flore microbienne cutanée résidente et qui ne stimulent pas la croissance de micro-organismes de la flore microbienne pathogène transitoire. Dans un deuxième aspect, l'invention concerne des micro-organismes qui peuvent inhiber la flore microbienne cutanée pathogène transitoire et qui n'inhibent pas la croissance de micro-organismes de la flore microbienne cutanée résidente. L'invention concerne également des compositions comprenant lesdits micro-organismes ainsi que l'utilisation desdits micro-organismes dans des applications cosmétiques, prophylactiques ou thérapeutiques.
