AbstractIn early life, diet plays a key role in shaping the infant microbiota, yet the impact of breast milk and formula on microbial ecosystems at different stages of infant development remains poorly understood. Here, we performed static batch culture experiments using infant faecal samples at ages 1, 12 and 18 months of age, supplemented with either breast milk or formula for 48 hours.
