Effects of florfenicol exposure during early life on toxicity, gut microbiota, and fecal metabolome in SD rats

Florfenicol (FLO) is a third-generation veterinary antibiotic with a high residue detection rate in food, which cause the toxicity of FLO even at low doses, receiving notable attention. The impact of FLO exposure during early life on health and gut microbiota is still unclear. Here, the effects of F...
