The Regulatory Effect of Low-Intensity Radiation in the Near-Infrared Region on the Early Development of Zebrafish (Danio rerio)

详细

The effects of exposure to low-intensity continuous radiation in the red and near-infrared regions of the spectrum, as well as to infrared pulsed radiation, on the early development of zebrafish (Danio rerio) were studied. It was found that the use of continuous radiation at the red and infrared wavelengths (633 nm, 930 nm, dose 24 mJ/m²) leads to accelerated development of the embryo. In contrast, exposure to low-intensity single pulsed infrared radiation (864 nm) in the entire range of the doses studied (2.4–2400 mJ/cm2) negatively affected the early development of zebrafish, resulting in a significant dose-dependent delay in the hatching time of embryos and a reduction in the body length of larvae.
