Protection against experimental necrotizing enterocolitis by fecal filtrate transfer requires an active donor virome
10 Apr 2025
Abstract excerpt
Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) remains a frequent catastrophic disease in preterm infants, and fecal filtrate transfer (FFT) has emerged as a promising prophylactic therapy. This study explored the role of virome viability for the protective effect of FFT. Using ultraviolet (UV) irradiation, we established a viral inactivation protocol and administered FFT, UV-inactivated FFT (iFFT) or sterile saline orally to...
