Antenatal microbial colonisation of mammalian gut

2017-12-18

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The widely accepted dogma of intrauterine sterility and initial colonisation of the newborn during birth has been blurred by recent observations of microbial presence in meconium, placenta and amniotic fluid. Given the importance of a maternal-derived in utero infant seeding, it is crucial to exclude potential environmental or procedural contaminations, and to assess foetal colonisation before...
