Effects of DDT and lindane on the hatching and <i>abcc4</i> expression of zebrafish embryos.

Abstract

<p>(<b>A and B</b>) Hatching rates of 96-hpf embryos exposed to DDT or lindane at indicated concentrations. (<b>C and D</b>) Total RNAs of zebrafish embryos in (A) and (B) were extracted for real-time PCR. (<b>E</b>) Embryos treated with 0.05 µg/L DDT or 0.01 µg/L lindane from 24 to 96 hpf were subjected to WISH analysis of induced <i>abcc4</i> expression, respectively. CK represents the untreated control. Black arrows point to intestine. All values are expressed as mean ± standard deviation, n = 3. Significant differences are indicated by ^*<i>p</i><0.05 and ^**<i>p</i><0.01.</p
