Zebrafish tracking to uncover subtle effects of embryonic alcohol exposure
Zebrafish are not the first species one might think of as being exposed to alcohol in their natural environment.
Read More arrow_forwardWhen it comes to studying zebrafish behavior, video tracking software is the ideal tool. Every aspect of zebrafish behavior, in both adults and larvae, is easily measured using EthoVision XT video tracking software with additional tools like DanioVision and aquatic mazes. These aspects include social interaction, anxiety-like behavior, exploration, swimming patterns, or just general activity.
