From: Ceftiofur treatment of sows results in long-term alterations in the nasal microbiota of the offspring that can be ameliorated by inoculation of nasal colonizers

Alpha diversity (Shannon index) of nasal microbiota from piglet at different ages (D = days of age) and groups. Pregnant sows were treated with ceftiofur or remained untreated. A group of piglets born to treated sows remained nontreated (TS group), while piglets born to non-treated sows were treated with ceftiofur (TP group). A group of piglets were inoculated with selected colonizers of the upper respiratory tract either born to ceftiofur-treated sows (TS-IP) and to non-treated sows (IP group). As control, piglets born to non-treated sows remained non-treated
