Evidence of Bacterial DNA Presence in Chorionic Villi and Amniotic Fluid in the First and Second Trimester of Pregnancy

1 Jul 2021

Abstract excerpt

The sterile-womb dogma in uncomplicated pregnancy has been lively debated. Data regarding the in utero microbiome environment are based mainly on studies performed at the time of delivery. Aim: To determine whether human placenta and amniotic fluid are populated by a bacterial microbiota in the first and second trimesters of pregnancy. Materials & methods: We analyzed by next-generation sequencing method 24 and...
