Project description:Development of the gut microbiota is greatly impacted in preterm infants. Despite increasing knowledge about microbiota composition in preterm infants, knowledge about the functional signatures of the intestinal microbiota remains limited. The aim was to study transitions in microbiota activity during the first six postnatal weeks in ten preterm infants. A total of 64 stool samples were measured by LC-MS/MS.

Project description:91 preterm infant gut metaproteomes measured in technical duplicate using an eleven salt pulse 2D-LC-MS/MS method. Samples represent 17 preterm infants over the first several weeks of life, of which 6 preterm infants eventually developed necrotizing enterocolitis.
