Neural and Behavioral Dynamics of Acute Fentanyl Administration and Implications for Hazard Assessment of Novel Synthetic Opioids in Larval Zebrafish

Courtney Hillman, James Kearn, Gabrielle Wasser‐Bennett, Maciej Trznadel, Matthew J. Winter, Matthew O. Parker

This study uses larval zebrafish to assess the behavioral and neural effects of fentanyl and other synthetic opioids, identifying potential mechanisms and validating a scalable model for hazard assessment.

Evaluating anaesthetics for improving scientific research and welfare using larval zebrafish

Sylvia Dimitriadou, Mhairi Miller, Ali Pilehvar, Lynne U. Sneddon, Jessica L. Bamsey, Damilola Hogan-Bassey, Maciej Trznadel, Jonathan S. Ball, Aya Takesono, Courtney Hillman, Hannah Rickard, Grace Popplewell, Jenna Corcoran, Tetsuhiro Kudoh, Charles R. Tyler, Matthew J. Winter

The paper evaluates six anaesthetics for their efficacy and tolerability in larval zebrafish, identifying MS222 and quinaldine sulfate as most suitable for deep anaesthesia and etomidate for cardiovascular studies.
