Our objective was to determine whether the milk microbiota was modified by maternal age, BMI, parity, lactation stage, subclinical mastitis (SCM), and breastfeeding practices in the first 6 mo of lactation in an indigenous population from Guatemala.</p> Mon, 25 Oct 2021 21:35:15 +0000 Lilian Lopez Leyva, Kristine Koski, et al. 2756 at /globalhealth
