Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The primary objective of this study is to collect feces from premature infants over a five weeks period to characterize its composition. Metabolomics, Proteomics, Genomics and Microbiome analyses and cell-based assays will be performed to identify individual components present in feces, which may contribute to the onset of irritation in the diapered area of premature infants.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Infant's parent(s)/legal guardian(s) must be fluent in English or Spanish, willing and able to read, understand, and sign the informed consent form (ICF).
* Infants (male or female) who are equal or less than a gestational age of 30 weeks + 4 days.

Exclusion Criteria

* Any medical condition which, in the opinion of the principal investigator, may compromise infant's safety.
* Any underlying chronic skin conditions. However, infants may participate in the study with a rash in the diapered area if, in the opinion of the principal investigator, this does not compromise infant's safety.
