| Abstract |
The present study explores the potential of 10-day-old zebrafish (Danio rerio) as a predictive blood-brain-barrier model using a set of 7 pharmaceutical agents. For this purpose, zebrafish were incubated with each of these 7 drugs separately via the route of immersion and the concentration reaching the brain was determined by applying a brain extraction procedure allowing isolation of the intact brain from the head of the zebrafish larvae. Sample analysis was performed utilizing capillary ultra-high performance liquid chromatography (cap-UHPLC) on a Pepmap RSLC C18 capillary column (150 mm × 300 μm, dp = 2 μm) coupled to a variable wavelength UV detector. Gradient separation was performed in 28 min at a flow rate of 5 μL/min and the optimal injection volume was determined to be 1 μL. The brain extraction procedure was established for the zebrafish strain TG898 exhibiting red fluorescence of the brain, allowing control of the integrity of the extracted parts. Quantitative experiments carried out on pooled samples of six zebrafish (n = 6) demonstrated the selective semipermeable nature of the blood-brain barrier after incubating the zebrafish at the maximum tolerated concentration for the investigated pharmaceuticals. The obtained brain-to-trunk ratios ranged between 0.3 for the most excluded compound and 1.2 for the pharmaceutical agent being most accumulated in the brain of the fish.

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 06 April 2018.
All research outputs
#19,951,180
of 25,382,440 outputs
Outputs from Analytical & Bioanalytical Chemistry
#6,061
of 9,619 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#252,774
of 343,516 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Analytical & Bioanalytical Chemistry
#97
of 191 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,382,440 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 18th percentile – i.e., 18% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 9,619 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.1. This one is in the 31st percentile – i.e., 31% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 343,516 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 191 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 35th percentile – i.e., 35% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
