The cardiovascular system is one of the most characteristic and important targets for
developmental toxicity by 2, 3, 7, 8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) in fish larvae …

Trace metal ions such as cadmium (Cd 2+) and trace organics typified by 2, 3, 7, 8-
tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) are common co-contaminants in the environment and …

Abstract Tris (2-chloroethyl) phosphate (TCEP), a typical organophosphate flame retardant,
is of increasingly great concern considering their ubiquitous presence in aquatic …

TCDD is one of the most persistent environmental toxicants in biological systems and its
effect through aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) has been well characterized. However, the …

Whole effluent toxicity (WET) testing uses whole animal exposures to assess the toxicity of
complex mixtures, like wastewater. These assessments typically include four apical …

2, 3, 7, 8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) was injected into chicken eggs prior to
incubation to study possible mechanisms of toxicity and teratogenicity. One of the suggested …

Persistent organic pollutants are of great concern because they tend to disperse widely
across ecosystems; they accumulate to high concentrations in the tissues of wildlife; and …

High‐level, acute exposures to individual polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and
complex PAH mixtures result in cardiac abnormalities in developing fish embryos. Whereas …

Background In order to generate hypotheses regarding the mechanisms by which 2, 3, 7, 8-
tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (dioxin) causes toxicity, we analyzed global gene expression …

The visualization of specific activation of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) directly in the
zebrafish embryo (Danio rerio) via live-imaging is a reliable tool to investigate the presence …
