Fecal Microbiota Transplant (FMT)

Fecal microbiota transplant (FMT), or stool transplant, is the administration of a fecal matter solution from a healthy donor into a recipient’s intestinal tract to directly normalize the recipient’s microbial composition and confer a health benefit (Wang et al., 2019; Gupta et al., 2015). For example, it is used in humans to control and treat recurrent Clostridium difficile infections and Pseudomembranous colitis (Park & Seo, 2021),.
