ABSTRACT :
This study covers recent scientific articles in the literature on arsenic toxicity, pathological changes caused by sodium arsenite exposure observed in zebrafish and its importance as an animal model in scientific research.The results of in vivo studies using zebrafish as a model have shown the presence of toxic effects on behaviour and metabolism, particularly at low concentrations of the substance, both in the case of long-term and short-term exposures.
