N -Ethyl Perfluorooctane Sulfonamide ( N -EtFOSA) Exposure Alters Microbiome Composition and Causes Microbiome-Dependent Behavior Effects in Larval Zebrafish
Puntos clave
The aim is to investigate how N-EtFOSA exposure alters microbiome composition and induces behavioral changes in larval zebrafish.
Used larval zebrafish as a model organism to assess effects of N-EtFOSA exposure.
Analyzed changes in microbiome composition linked to behavioral outcomes.
Behavioral effects observed in zebrafish were dependent on microbiome alterations.
Resumen
-EtFOSA-dependent behavior effects at the level of the host. This supports the concept that chemical-microbiome interactions can influence host phenotypic outcomes.
