MICROBIOTA OF DIGESTIVE TRACT IN adolescents
The qualitative and quantitative parameters of oral fluid and feces in 74 healthy adolescents of different age groups had been studied. In most cases revealed microecology changes characterized by decreasing quantity of indigenous microflora and increasing quantity of opportunistic microorganisms of Staphylococcus, Bacillus and Candida genera, the severity of these changes significantly increases with age. It is established that the microbiota of the initial and final biotopes of the digestive tract are closely interrelated and have a number of common age-dependent features and reflects the microbiocenosis state of digestive tract in general. The nature and extent of the microbiocenosis changes can be effective diagnostic criteria for the integrated assessment of adolescent health with the subsequent formation of risk groups in need of a certain amount of corrective measures.
