Alteration of the intestinal flora in children after antibiotic treatment explored using 16S rRNA sequencing
yuhan zhou
Abstract:Background
During the critical period of intestinal flora establishment, children are infected, and their flora types and numbers are unstable and vulnerable to environmental influences. Antibiotic therapy is one of the leading causes of intestinal flora dysbiosis in children, but the underlying mechanism is still unclear. In this study, we investigated the changes in the characteristics of the intestinal flora in children after antibiotic treatment from a microscopic perspective via 16S rRNA sequencing techno… Show more
