Developmental and cardiac toxicity assessment of Ethyl 3-(N-butylacetamido) propanoate (EBAAP) in zebrafish embryos.

Ethyl 3-(N-butylacetamido) propanoate (EBAAP) is one of the most widely used mosquito repellents worldwide, and is also commonly used to produce cosmetics. Residues have recently been detected in surface and groundwater in many countries, and their potential to harm the environment is unknown. Therefore, more studies are needed to fully assess the toxicity of EBAAP.

Benomyl-induced development and cardiac toxicity in zebrafish embryos.

Benomyl is a highly effective broad-spectrum fungicide widely used worldwide to control vegetable, fruit, and oil crop diseases. However, the mechanism of its toxicity to aquatic organisms and humans remains unknown. In this study, zebrafish were used to determine the toxicity of benomyl.
