What causes armpit odor

In a report recently published in the journal, Scientific Reports, British scientists have discovered what makes people stink.  Turns out, we can all blame our B.O. on an enzyme that hides in specific bacteria that colonize the human armpit. "Solving the structure of this 'BO enzyme' has allowed us to pinpoint the molecular step inside certain bacteria that makes the odor molecules," said co-author Michelle Rudden, a postdoctoral research associate […]
