Characteristics of intestinal microbiota in infants with late-onset breast milk jaundice.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

In this paper, microbiota analysis was determined to analyze the structure and difference of intestinal microbiota between LBMJ (late-onset breast milk jaundice) infants and healthy individuals.

Methods

We collected fresh fecal samples from 13 infants with LBMJ and 13 healthy individuals, then determined the intestinal microbiota by 16 s rRNA sequencing. The differences of microbiota structure, diversity and functional characteristics between the two groups were analyzed, and the correlation between dominant genus and TcB (transcutaneous bilirubin) value was calculated.

Results

In this study, there were no significant differences in maternal demographic characteristics, neonatal status and macronutrients in breast milk between the two groups (p > 0
