Zebrafish Lab Care, Feeding, and Genotyping

Description

Zebrafish lab care focuses on keeping Danio rerio healthy in a research setting. These small vertebrates are used to study development, model disease, and screen for new therapeutics. Their size also lets labs house many fish at low cost.

Good zebrafish health depends on diet and water quality. T...

正确的饲养是使用斑马鱼做实验成功的重要因素。最佳的水质能够提高斑马鱼的健康和实验的可重复性。另外,斑马鱼的产卵极大地取决于合适的营养条件。本短片描述了如何在实验室中饲养和喂食斑马鱼、操作和利用斑马鱼的小技巧、以及简单介绍在生物学实验中如何调整斑马鱼的生活环境。

首先让我们来看看斑马鱼习性的基本知识。

野生斑马鱼来自天然的喜马拉雅水域。在这种气候中,斑马鱼大部分的时间都在缓慢流动的天然水中晒太阳。

那么如何在实验中重建这个乐园呢?让我们先从最重要的部分开始:水。尽管新鲜的水很容易得到,但是自来水对于斑马鱼来说是有毒的,因为其中存在氯和潜在的污染物。所以,养鱼池用水必...
