The impact of bisphenol an exposure in utero and postnatal trans-fat diet on small intestine global DNA methylation and gut microbiome of sprague dawley rats / Sarah Zulkifli
A multitude of evidence has pointed out the repercussions of prenatal bisphenol A (BPA) exposure with a postnatal high fat diet on offspring’s health. However, the information on how the interaction between these two variables affects the small intestinal cells and the gut microbiome is rather limit...
