 ===== Existence of microbes in healthy tissue supposed to be sterile =====
-  * **blood** – The presence of microbes in the blood is known as bacteremia. While many doctors believe it to be rare, a significant blood microbiome is ubiquitous. The Relman Lab at Stanford used real time PCR to show that there is a substantial and "normal" population of bacterial DNA sequences in the blood of even healthy individuals.(({{pubmed>long:11326021}})) McLaughlin //et al.// used 16S rRNA probes and dark field microscopy to show that the blood of healthy individuals contained pleomorphic microorganisms, which grow slowly and are not susceptible to antibiotics (right).(({{pubmed>long:12454193}})) They concluded that their findings "should not be controversial."
