A Pilot Study on Nanotherapy of Momordica charantia against Trimethyltin Chloride-Induced Neurotoxicity in Danio rerio (Zebrafish)
Background. The direct or indirect effect of chemicals on the nervous system of humans or animals is referred to as neurotoxicity. Trimethyltin chloride (TMT) intoxication causes behavioral and cognitive deficiencies in humans and experimental animals. TMT has long been used as a model toxicant in t...
