Abstract

Exposure of N-nitrosodiethylamine (NDEA) to hermaphroditic fish (Rivulus marmoratus) embryos induced specific congenital malformations when the chemical was applied to embryos on days 0-6 post morula stage. This sensitive period generally coincided with the known period of organogenesis in this species, and the incidence of anomalies was clearly dose related. These results indicate that NDEA is teratogenic to fish embryos.
