770-774Evidence of the severe effects of
alkylphenols (APs) on different fish species exists in a number of axes
including endocrine and non-endocrine as well. Present study demonstrates the
non-estrogenic attribution of AP in fish species. Confirming this
non-estrogenic action of alkylphenols, zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryos
were subjected to different doses of APs to study the effect of such class of
chemicals on the fish embryogenesis during the first 120 hours of
fertilization
