Chlebowski, Anna C.

Abstract:

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are among the most widely known and studied environmental contaminants, originating from a range of natural and anthropogenic sources. PAHs are known to occur in the environment as complex mixtures, containing both unsubstituted PAHs, as well as a range of PAH derivatives. Among the less-studied of...

Classifying Chemical Bioactivity by Coupling High-throughput Phenotypic Anchoring and Transcriptome Profiling in Zebrafish

Creator:

Haggard, Derik

Abstract:

There are more than 87,000 chemicals in current use with little to no toxicity information available. Assessing such a large number of chemicals using traditional methods would take an unreasonable amount of time and money, and require the use a large number of animals. The incorporation of high-throughput in vivo...
