Developmental and Neurotoxicity of Acrylamide to Zebrafish [PDF]
Acrylamide is a commonly used industrial chemical that is known to be neurotoxic to mammals. However, its developmental toxicity is rarely assessed in mammalian models because of the cost and complexity involved. We used zebrafish to assess the neurotoxicity, developmental and behavioral toxicity of acrylamide.

Stem cell-based approaches for developmental neurotoxicity testing [PDF]
Neurotoxicants are substances that can lead to adverse structural or functional effects on the nervous system. These can be chemical, biological, or physical agents that can cross the blood brain barrier to damage neurons or interfere with complex ...

Methylmercury exposure and developmental neurotoxicity
We are concerned that certain aspects of the systematic review on methylmercury (MeHg) exposure from seafood consumption and the risk of developmental neurotoxicity published in the Bulletin of World Health Organization could be misinterpreted.1 Specifically, the review does not address the issue of whether naturally-occurring, background levels of ...

Developmental fluoride neurotoxicity: an updated review [PDF]
Background After the discovery of fluoride as a caries-preventing agent in the mid-twentieth century, fluoridation of community water has become a widespread intervention, sometimes hailed as a mainstay of modern public health.

Developmental Neurotoxicity of Trichlorfon in Zebrafish Larvae. [PDF]
Trichlorfon is an organophosphorus pesticide widely used in aquaculture and has potential neurotoxicity, but the underlying mechanism remains unclear. In the present study, zebrafish embryos were exposed to trichlorfon at concentrations (0, 0.1, 2 and 5 mg/L) used in aquaculture from 2 to 144 h post fertilization.
