Brief Summary
Investigators hypothesize that Immunoglobine (Ig) production is influenced by the microbiota of the gut. Investigators will compare microbiota-dependent Ig production in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of patients with and without antibiotic therapy in order to detect significant differences.
