Transgenerational effects of bisphenol A on zebrafish reproductive tissues and sperm motility.

In a previous study, we demonstrated the next-generation effects and further transgenerational adverse effects of bisphenol A (BPA) in zebrafish. The adverse effects on reproductive factors, such as gonadal activity, fertility, hatching rate and malformation of embryo caused by the dietary administration on initial generation (F0) male and female zebrafish were continued until third filial (F3) generation. In this study, we examined how much amount of BPA contained in the diet was taken up by the zebrafish.
