Abstract
Zebrafish is one of the emerging alternative models in screening of toxic substances and the results obtained can be extrapolated to other mammals including human being. This model is being observed and the data generated in this model is considered for risk assessment by the various regulatory agencies. Cypermethrin is a synthetic pyrethroid. It finds wide application as pesticides in agriculture and in household insecticides like mosquito repellents.
