Swim performance as an effective, environmentally relevant measure of sublethal toxicity in zebrafish (<i>Danio rerio</i>)

Examination of the swimming capabilities of fish is increasingly being considered as an effective method for determining sublethal toxicity. Acute toxicant exposure is known to cause decreases in swim performance in fish but less is known about how developmental exposure can cause persistent effects...
