Given the ever-increasing toxic exposure ubiquitously present in our environment as well as emerging evidence that these exposures are hazardous to human health, the current rodent-based regulations are proving inadequate. In the process of overhauling risk assessment methodology, a nonrodent test o

## Abstract Dextromethorphan is widely used in overβtheβcounter cough and cold medications. Its efficacy and safety for infants and young children remains to be clarified. The present study was designed to use zebrafish as a model to investigate the potential toxicity of dextromethorphan during emb
Zebrafish (Danio rerio) have advantages over mammals as an animal model for investigating developmental toxicity. 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (dioxin, TCDD), a persistent global contaminant, is the most comprehensively studied developmental toxicant in zebrafish. The hallmark responses of TC
