Embryotoxic Effects of Pesticides in Zebrafish (<i>Danio rerio</i>): Diflubenzuron, Pyriproxyfen, and Its Mixtures

Diflubenzuron (DFB) and pyriproxyfen (PPF) are larvicides used in crops to control insect plagues. However, these pesticides are known to impact non-target organisms like fish and mammals.
