Metagenomic studies on the gut microbiota of preterm infants are scarce. We characterized the microbiota of 10 days-old neonates by deep 16S rRNA gene metagenomic analysis and compare the results with those obtained by qPCR. Both techniques lead to similar conclusions, allowing differentiating between preterm and full-term infants.
关于早产儿肠道微生物组的宏基因组研究还很匮乏。我们通过深度 16S rRNA 基因宏基因组分析来描述 10 天大的新生儿的微生物组,并将结果与 qPCR 获得的结果进行比较。这两种技术得出的结论相似,都可以区分早产儿和足月儿。
