Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: It has been suggested that the local microbiota in the reproductive organs is relevant to women's health and may also affect pregnancy outcomes. Analysis of partial 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene sequences generated by short-read sequencers has been used to identify vaginal and endometrial microbiota, but it requires a long time to obtain the results, making it unsuitable for rapid bacterial...
