Optimizing the Use of Zebrafish Feeding Trials for the Safety Evaluation of Genetically Modified Crops

In Europe, the toxicological safety of genetically modified (GM) crops is routinely evaluated using rodent feeding trials, originally designed for testing oral toxicity of chemical compounds. We aimed to develop and optimize methods for advancing the use of zebrafish feeding trials for the safety ev...
