Yes, some pathways are blocked - but researchers witnessed alternative ones opening.
Do newborns birthed by c-section surgery — through a cut made in the tummy and womb — miss out on vital microbes? The answer appears to be no, according to new research.has ensured that microbes find a way to be delivered via alternate, compensating routes, if necessary.The research sheds light on how infants, typically thought of as sterile before birth, acquire the necessary microbes for their diverse microbiomes.research has been on the gut.
Two hours after the babies were delivered, as well as at one day, one week, two weeks, and one month old, they took skin, nose, saliva, and gut microbiota samples from the infants. They next examined these findings in light of several variables, such as delivery method, antibiotic use, and breastfeeding, that are believed to affect microbiota transmission.
"If some of these pathways are blocked for one reason or another—in this case, we saw that happening with the cesarean section—then these microbes can still reach the infant through other paths.The researchers discovered that the mother contributes about 58.5% of a baby's microbiota, regardless of the baby's delivery method.That said, different maternal microbial communities influenced neonatal microbiomes in different ways.
