Analyzing the use of the acellular DCFH assay as a means of determining oxidative stress induced in zebrafish embryos exposed to lanthanide oxide nanoparticles

Creator:

Engstrom, Arek

Abstract:

The ability of nanoparticles (NPs) to induce oxidative stress on organisms has been linked to NP cytotoxicity and genotoxicity for a variety of organisms. One proposed mechanism of this increased oxidative stress is the ability of NPs to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS). Due to the dynamic nature and small...

Nitrate and Nitrite Differentially Affect Respiration in Zebrafish During Exercise

Creator:

Logan, Christiana R.

Abstract:

A decline in the oxygen cost of exercise enhances exercise tolerance and performance. Substantial research has shown that dietary nitrate lowers the oxygen cost of exercise in sedentary humans; however, the metabolic determinants regarding how dietary nitrate influences oxygen consumption in skeletal muscle is not known. We addressed this gap...
