Identification of donor microbe species that colonize and persist long term in the recipient after fecal transplant for recurrent Clostridium difficile
Fecal microbiota transplantation has been shown to be an effective treatment for patients with recurrent C. difficile colitis. Although fecal microbiota transplantation helps to re-establish a normal gut function in patients, the extent of the repopulation of the recipient microbial community varies...
