| Abstract |
A fish model, suitable for use as an indicator for teratogenic substances, is described. Individual blastula stage embryos of the inland silverside, Menidia beryllina, are exposed to teratogens in sealed tissue culture tubes containing 6 ml of saline test media, 5(0/00) salinity and 25 + or - 1C. Individual embryos are examined daily and tetra enumerated using a system that ranks craniofacial (CR), cardiovascular (CV) and skeletal (SK) responses. Procedures for statistical analysis of data are described. |
