The unease of consumers with bisphenol A has led to the increased industrial usage of
bisphenol F (BPF), which is a new hazard to environmental health. Here, zebrafish were …

L‐serine is classified as a non‐essential amino acid; however, L‐serine is indispensable
having a central role in a broad range of cellular processes. Growing evidence suggests a …

Abstract d-Alanine (d-Ala) is an unusual endogenous amino acid present in invertebrates
