Ammonia (including NH 3 and NH 4+) is a major pollutant of freshwater environments.
However, the toxic effects of ammonia on the early stages of fish are not fully understood …

Acidification of freshwater ecosystems is recognized as a global environmental problem.
However, the influence of acidic water on the early stages of freshwater fish is still unclear …

The mechanism of ammonia excretion in freshwater teleosts is not well understood. In this
study, scanning ion-selective electrode technique was applied to measure H+ and NH4+ …

Although adult fish excrete their nitrogenous waste primarily as ammonia, larval fish may
excrete a higher proportion as urea, an evolutionary strategy that lessens nitrogenous waste …

Ammonia nitrogen is one of the important environmental factors, and causes negative effects
for fish health in ecosystem and aquaculture. The toxic effects and mechanisms of ammonia …

Zebrafish lateral-line hair cells are an in vivo model for studying hair cell development,
function, and ototoxicity. However, the molecular identification and properties of the …

To investigate whether Na+ uptake by zebrafish is dependent on NH4+ excretion, a
scanning ion-selective electrode technique was applied to measure Na+ and NH4+ …

Exposures to sodium metam (NaM) within the developmental period of somitogenesis (10-to
18-h postfertilization [hpf]) results in easily detectable distortions of the notochord by 24 hpf …

Excessive ammonia triggered negative effects on aquatic animals' health, growth, and mass
death, especially at different developmental periods. However, the underlying responses to …

The sensory-motor function in larval zebrafish (Danio rerio) following exposure to low water
pH was investigated. The results suggested that acid exposure (pH 4.0–5.0; control: pH 7.4) …
