Chronic co-exposure to low levels of brominated flame retardants and heavy metals induces reproductive toxicity in zebrafish.

abstract：:Excessive exposure to nickel may cause health effects on the blood, lung, nose, kidney, reproductive system, skin and the unborn child. In the present study, we found that Ni²⁺ exposure led to a time- and dose-dependent proliferation arrest and death in human leukemia HL-60 cells. In the presence of 1 mM Ni²⁺, reactiv...
