Collection Summary:Participants of this study included 122 children from the multi-center NIAID Consortium for Food Allergy Research (CoFAR) Observational Study (CoFAR2) who provided stool samples at both infancy and mid-childhood (these are the factors listed in the table). The recruitment and clinical characteristics of these CoFAR2 subjects have been previously described. Briefly, 511 children were recruited at age 3 to 15 months from five US sites (New York, NY, Baltimore, MD, Little Rock, AR, Denver, CO, Durham, NC).16 The cohort was designed as a longitudinal study of infants at high risk for developing peanut allergy, and inclusion criteria included likely egg allergy, milk allergy, and/or moderate to severe atopic dermatitis with a positive egg and/or milk skin prick test at enrollment, but no known peanut allergy. 16 Clinical phenotyping of the subjects, including assessments of peanut allergy, egg allergy, milk allergy, and atopic dermatitis, were performed at 6-12 month intervals between enrollment at infancy and mid-childhood (mean age 9 years, SD 0.6 years). All subjects provided stool samples at baseline and were invited to submit a follow up sample at mid-childhood. Stool samples were collected from 492 of the children at baseline and from 122 of the children at mid-childhood. Samples were immediately stored at -80 o C upon receipt.
