Abstract

The neonatal nasal microbiota may help protect neonates in the neonatal intensive care unit from pathogen colonization and infection. This preliminary study characterized the biodiversity of nasal microbiota comparing neonates in the neonatal intensive care unit and their mothers, highlighting the potential of strain sharing between mother-neonate pairs.
