The present study aimed (i) to evaluate whether ceftriaxone treatment could affect not only intestinal oxalate-degrading bacteria number but also their total activity to degrade oxalate and influence oxalate homeostasis in rats, (ii) and to estimate the ability of commercially available inulin-contained synbiotic to restore fecal oxalate-degrading activity and ceftriaxone-induced disruption of oxalate homeostasis in rats. Twenty-eight female Wistar rats (200-300 g) were randomly divided into four groups (n = 7). Group 1 was treated with vehicle sterile water (0.
