Abstract
  • Ozonation was an efficient solution for removing ABs widely used in aquaculture, except for FF.
  • Florfenicol degradation requires HO, being highly dependent on the type of water matrix.
  • Endpoints of the zebrafish assays did not reveal toxicity potential compared to negative and positive controls, in clear contrast with the untreated effluent.
