Fig. 2

Evaluation of the TER after exposure to paraoxon and huprine Y. Results are expressed as mean ± standard deviation of swimming distance in mm or points for quantitative or qualitative evaluation, respectively. Each experiment was repeated at least 3 times with 6 embryos/concentration (minimum 18 embryos in 3 independent experiments) and performing 3 tactile stimuli to each embryo. Structural dysmorphogeneses recorded during the experiments are represented as follows: white bars ≤ 10% of embryos with dysmorphogeneses, dotted bars ≥ 11% & ≤ 50% and striped bars > 50%. See Additional file 1: Table S3 for more details. T-test (paraoxon, compounds 1, 6, 7, 8, and 10) or one-way ANOVA followed by Bonferroni test (huprine Y, compounds 2, 3, 4, 5, and 9) were used to statistically compare groups with the control. *Indicates significant differences with the control (p < 0.05)
