Rare earth element erbium induces hepatotoxicity in zebrafish

Puntos clave

• Hepatotoxicity is observed in zebrafish exposed to erbium—indicating significant toxicity effects.
• Testing showed alterations in liver function metrics within 48 hours of exposure to erbium.
• The analysis includes both histological assessments and biochemical tests to evaluate liver function.
• Findings highlight the need for further studies on chronic exposure effects in aquatic environments.
