Biomarkers as a tool to assess effects of chromium (VI): Comparison of responses in zebrafish early life stages and adults

The present work aims to compare the sensitivity of embryos and adult zebrafish to chromium (VI) (as potassium dichromate) focusing on biomarkers (cholinesterase, glutathione S-transferase and lactate dehydrogenase) as endpoints. Zebrafish eggs showed less sensitivity to Cr (VI) (96 h-LC(50) = 145.7...
