Propionibacterium acne.
I think that was the answer you wanted. However, when you actually send a q-tip full of pimple ooze to the lab, it grows far more that just propionii. There would be normal skin flora, which means bacteria that grows on your skin NORMALLY
What is the name of the bacteria that causes acne?
staph aureus.
Reply:"Oil secretions are said to build up beneath the blocked pore, providing a perfect environment for the skin bacteria Propionibacterium acnes and the lipophilic (oil/lipid-loving) yeast Malassezia[citation needed] to multiply uncontrollably."
