Description 509-515
Present study reports the response of zebrafish embryos exposed in vivo
to graded concentrations of Nonylphenol (NP), ranging from high lethal levels
to lower, more environmentally relevant levels. Embryos treated with NP showing
developmental abnormalities and morphological alterations in a dose-dependent
pattern. Results suggest that early exposure to NP can cause direct and delayed
mortalities or even non-lethal malformations at doses more than 0.3 μM, while
EC50 was shown to be 1 μM after 6 days of exposure.
