Abstract :
[en] The zebrafish embryotoxicity test (ZET) has become increasingly prominent in evaluating the bioactivity and safety of chemicals and drugs, attracting scientists and legislators. Within the joint projects between the Laboratory for Organogenesis and Regeneration (ULiege) and the Faculty of Biology (VNU University of Science, Vietnam), we found that some chemicals may induce specific morphological effects on zebrafish embryos. Some of these phenotypic endpoints may indicate underlying mechanisms involved. Our studies have added several specific endpoints to the collection of bioactive indicators.
