Likewise, the urine specimens were mostly dominated by the Corynebacterium (n=11), Staphylococcus (n=9), Streptococcus (n=7), Lactobacillus (n=7), Gardnerella (n=7), Prevotella (n=4), Escherichia_Shigella (n=3) and Enterobacteriaceae (n=2). Overall, this finding supports the previous research representing microbiome diversity…
