Development and application of the adverse outcome pathway framework for understanding and predicting chronic toxicity. II. A focus on growth impairment in fish
(2015)ChemosphereAdverse outcome pathways (AOPs) organize knowledge on the progression of toxicity through levels of biological organization. By determining the linkages between toxicity events at different levels, AOPs lay the foundation for mechanism-based alternative testing approaches to hazard assessment. Here, we focus on growth impairment in fish to illustrate the initial stages in the process of AOP development for chronic toxicity outcomes. Growth ...Journal Article -
Development and application of the adverse outcome pathway framework for understanding and predicting chronic toxicity. I. Challenges and research needs in ecotoxicology
(2015)ChemosphereTo elucidate the effects of chemicals on populations of different species in the environment, efficient testing and modeling approaches are needed that consider multiple stressors and allow reliable extrapolation of responses across species. An adverse outcome pathway (AOP) is a concept that provides a framework for organizing knowledge about the progression of toxicity events across scales of biological organization that lead to adverse ...Journal Article
