Author Response
Following your comment about
- The section “4.3. Bacterial based nutritional approaches to prevent UV-induced damages” would be strengthened by the discussion of a few more clinical studies/cases, beyond the studies on L. johnsonii and Lactobacillus.
We add Line 314:
Other photoprotective candidates can be considered such as Lactobacillus plantarum HY7714 Bifidobacterium breve, Bifidobacterium longum. (Patra-2020, Hong-2015, Kim-2014).
2. There are a few awkward and incorrect phrasings which should be edited by a English-native for clarity/improved syntax. For example:
Pg 1: “Photoprotection is then necessary” is better written, “Thus, Photoprotection is necessary.”
The english editing has been reviewed by MDPI English services.
Pg 1: Probiotic and postbiotic activity in health and disease: com-parison on a novel polarized ex-vivo organ culture model.” This is a fragment, not a sentence.
We delete the sentence.
Pg 7: “However, they have a remarkable active [68,69]. showed that a topical treatment of human skin with liposomes containing an active photolyase isolated from a cyanobacterium, Anacystis nidulans, was capable of degrading 40% of CDP generated by UVB exposure and also to reduce erythema” The period after the reference is incorrectly placed, and it appears that a word is missing after active (site?).
we add: “Authors” before showed and delete active before photolyase
