Problems solved by technology

Although the current conventional animal experiments can provide highly comparable screening and evaluation results, the general animal experiment cycle is long and the cost is high, which is not suitable for high-throughput drug screening
In many countries in Europe and the United States, vertebrates (...

Abstract

The invention aims to provide a method for assessing the acute toxicity of a medicament by using model animal zebrafish fries. The method is easy to operate, rapid and high in accuracy. The method is characterized by comprising the following steps of preparing the medicament into solutions to be tested with various concentrations by using dimethyl sulfoxide or ethyl alcohol, selecting the zebrafish fries normal in development 72 hours after fertilization, randomly distributing the zebrafish fries into perforated plates, adding the medicament to be tested with various concentrations, observing under a microscope 96 hours after the fertilization, judging that the fries are dead after the hearts of the fries stop beating, counting the survival rate of each group of the zebrafish fries and carrying out statistics, counting the half lethal dose (LD50) value through fitting curve by using GraphPad Prism software and responding the acute toxicity of the medicament by using the LD50 value. The method has the advantages that the method is simple in operation, rapid and high in accuracy and the acute toxicity of the medicament to be tested can be judged preliminarily.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of medicine, and in particular relates to a method for evaluating the acute toxicity of medicines by using model animal zebrafish fry. Background technique [0002] At present, the internationally recognized experimental methods for drug screening and toxicity and safety evaluation are divided into in vitro (in vitro) and in vivo (in vivo) experiments. In vitro experiments are usually cell culture or biochemical experiments, and the efficacy or toxicity of drugs is judged by evaluating the effects of compounds on cells, biochemical enzymatic reactions, or signal transduction pathways. In vitro experiments have the advantage of being fast and efficient, but in vitro experiments usually do not involve the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion of compounds, and the screening results are often inconsistent with the results of animal and human experiments, and the comparability is poor. In vivo exp...
