  • Evaluation of zebrafish (Brachydanio rerio) as a model for carcinogenesis

    Creator:
    Tsai, Hsi-Wen
    Abstract:
    Zebrafish (Brachydanio rerio) are small, freshwater teleost fishes in the family Cyprinidae, the true minnows. They are native to the tropical latitudes of India, but have become widespread through their use as aquarium fish and as models for several branches of biological research. Their ease of rearing, short generation time,...

  • In vivo assessment of nanomaterial-induced toxicity using embryonic zebrafish

    Creator:
    Usenko, Crystal Y.
    Abstract:
    Due to their unique physical, chemical, and magnetic properties, nanomaterials have great potential for industrial development. There is a pressing need to develop rapid whole animal-based testing assays to assess the potential toxicity of engineered nanomaterials. To meet this challenge the embryonic zebrafish model was employed to determine the toxicity...
