Evaluation of Acephate Metabolites Generated by Zebrafish (Danio rerio) Using LC–HRMS and Metabolomics Approach

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Acephate is an organophosphate insecticide widely used. This pesticide can be metabolized into methamidophos, a molecule highly toxic. Both have demonstrated the ability to promote serious toxic effects on nontarget organisms and have been identified in surface waters around the world. Therefore, it is important to understand their behavior in
