Evaluation of of the performance of the zebrafish (Danio rerio) model in nanotoxicology studies with emphasis on embryo pathology

The present study was conducted to evaluate the performance of zebrafish (Danio rerio) as a model in embryo and fetal pathology in nanotoxicology studies. Examination of the sources showed that it is possible to completely inhibit hatching and fetal death when exposed to nanoparticles, because nanoparticles interact with hatching enzymes. Zebrafish embryo developmental abnormalities have been s...
