В статье представлены современные данные о составе, становлении и роли кишечной микробиоты. Показана взаимосвязь между изменениями микробиоты кишечника и формированием различных форм патологии. Приведены данные об эффективности профилактического и лечебного действия пробиотических штаммов, наиболее часто используемых в практике педиатра.

 

The article presents updated data on the composition, formation and role of the intestinal microbiota. It shows the relationship between changes in the intestinal microbiota and the formation of various forms of pathology. Data on the effectiveness of the prophylactic and therapeutic effect of probiotic strains, most often used in paediatric practice, are provided.
