Abstract(s)

Introduction: The use of zebrafish – Danio rerio – has grown considerably, demonstrating the increasing interest to use this model in biomedical research. This is essentially due to the level of homology shared with the human genome, complemented by an easy and reasonably affordable practical side. Hence, this work investigated radiobiological effects of exposure to low doses of ionizing radiation in zebrafish.
