In vitro and in vivo assays of endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) using fish models (SC2)
Course description:
The SC2 was a 2 day EDA-EMERGE training course on in vitro and in vivo assays of endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) using fish models.
The course aimed to provide theoretical background on EDC in the environment, considering molecular and cellular mechanisms of action and physiological impacts on fish. Further, the course provided theoretical and practical views of existing modelling approaches dealing with dose-responses curves obtained in bioassays as well as implications for TEQ calculation. During a practical laboratory training the participants were introduced in vitro and in vivo bioassays using reporter cell lines and transgenic zebrafish.
