Abstract:
Zebrafish, a new type of model animal , has been widely used in many fields of biological research be-cause of its low cost , ability of external fertilization , high fecundity , allowance of embryo transplant , and ectogenesis .Re-cently, zebrafish and its embryos have been widely used in ecotoxicological studies and environmental monitoring .Further-more, with the maturation of zebrafish transgenic techniques , a new era has come for environmental pollution monitoring .
