Examining swim bladder inflation failure as a toxicological endpoint in Japanese medaka (Oryzias latipes)
(2017-11-01)Inadequate swim bladder inflation, while not being lethal itself, can have serious long-term effects on fish populations. Many environmental contaminants can inhibit swim bladder inflation of larval fish. Understanding how ... -
Refining adverse outcome pathways using Japanese Medaka Embryos (Oryzias latipes) exposed to 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzodioxin
(2021-08-01)Adverse outcome pathways (AOPs) are a framework that categorizes the impact of chemicals biologically from the initial molecular interaction through to the ecosystem level. This research aims to refine two existing AOPs ...
