Zebrafish (Danio rerio) are rapidly gaining popularity in translational neuroscience and
behavioral research. Physiological similarity to mammals, ease of genetic manipulations …

When faced with potential predators, animals instinctively decide whether there is a threat
they should escape from, and also when, how, and where to take evasive action. While …

Abstract After nano-(0.5 μm) or micro-(15 μm) polystyrene (PS) microplastics exposure, the
behavior, metabolism and energy reserve in marine demersal fish (Sebastes schlegelii) …

Nanoplastics (NP) are present in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. Humans can be
exposed to them through contaminated water, food, air, or personal care products …

Synthetic rubber emissions from automobile tires are common in aquatic ecosystems. To
assess potential impacts on exposed organisms, early life stages of the estuarine indicator …

The developing brain is extremely sensitive to many chemicals. Exposure to neurotoxicants
during development has been implicated in various neuropsychiatric and neurological …

Zebrafish embryos and early larvae are becoming increasingly important as models in
biomedical research because of their low cost, high throughput and potential as a …

Larval zebrafish possess several experimental advantages for investigating the molecular
and neural bases of learning and memory. Despite this, neuroscientists have only recently …

The present paper describes the vibrational startle response assay (VSRA), a new robust,
simple and automated in vivo medium-to high-throughput procedure for assessment of the …

The use of early life stages of fishes (embryos and larvae) in toxicity testing has been in
existence for a long time, generally utilizing endpoints such as morphological defects and …
