It did, however, temporarily suppress four distinct organisms early in life during the critical window

Klebsiella pneumoniae is usually a normal resident in the mouth
of healthy individuals, but as demonstrated in an experiment on specific pathogen - free mice treated and untreated with the antibiotic ampicillin, they can colonize in the gut and activate TH1 cells when antibiotics disturb the gut
microbial balance and weaken tolerance for the
colonization of oral bacteria reaching the intestine.
Given that the tubules seem to be associated with fractures and water - cooled margins within the rocks, the researchers propose that hydrothermal activity — the local circulation
of heated water, common after impacts — could have allowed
microbial colonization of the glass from the surrounding environment.
Factors which make patients susceptible to CLABSIs include prolonged hospitalization before catheterization, prolonged duration
of catheterization, and heavy
microbial colonization at the insertion site and catheter hub.
Relative to samples associated with
colonization, those from pneumonia had significantly lower
microbial diversity, decreased levels
of several bacterial genera and prominent multifunctional cytokine responses.
The human gut has an estimated surface area
of a tennis court (200 m2) and, as such a large organ, represents a major surface for
microbial colonization.
