Determination of the First Fecal Microbiota in Newborns and its Possible Relationship with Allergy
In this study, it was aimed to examine the microbiota diversity obtained from the first fecal (meconium) samples of newborns and investigate their possible relationship with the development of allergies over time. Taking into account the effects of microbiota on immune tolerance development, gut-brain axis and systemic immunity, it was evaluated whether early diversity and composition differences would be a determinant of allergy risk.
