Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
MoTP (57055-82-0) specifically ablates zebrafish larval melanocytes. Melanocytotoxicity is dependent on tyrosinase activity.1,2 MoTP is a useful tool for elucidating melanocyte stem cell regeneration, recruitment and maintenance.3-5 | [References]
