Neurobehavioral effects of 1,2-propanediol in zebrafish (Danio rerio). [PDF]
Neurotoxicology, 2018 The use of electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) is increasing despite insufficient information concerning their long-term effects, including the effects of maternal e-cigarette use on pre- and postnatal development. Our previous study demonstrated that developmental exposure to 1,2-propanediol (a principal component of e-cigarette liquid) affected ...
