Zebrafish: Methods for Assessing Drug Safety and Toxicityoffers a practical guide for using zebrafish as a tool fortoxicology studies.
Consolidating key protocols and approaches to help researchersnavigate the important and evolving field of zebrafish models fortoxicity screening, this new title describes the methods for usingthe zebrafish as a model organism to assess compound-inducedtoxicity on all major organs. Individual chapters thatconcentrate on assays for each organ system are included andvarious analytical tools including microscopy, microplate readers,high content imaging systems, ECG, blood pressure monitors, highspeed video and motion detectors are described.
