The developing premature infant gut microbiome is a major factor shaping the microbiome of neonatal intensive care unit rooms

2018-05-07

Abstract excerpt

1.1 <h4>Background</h4> The neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) contains a unique cohort of patients with underdeveloped immune systems and nascent microbiome communities. Patients often spend several months in the same room and it has been previously shown that the gut microbiomes of these infants often resemble the microbes found in the NICU. Little is known, however, about the identity, persistence and absolut...
