Synopsis

Fish, and particularly zebrafish, have become the fastest-growing segment of the research population. They offer several advantages, in terms of biology and technologies to apply, and thus are employed in numerous research fields. Laboratory Fish in Biomedical Research: Biology, Husbandry and Research Applications for Zebrafish, Medaka, Killifish, Swordtail Fish, Cavefish, Stickleback, Goldfish and Danionella Translucida addresses the relevant and increasing need to collect cutting-edge knowledge on husbandry, maintenance, welfare and experimental protocols of the most common freshwater species under standard laboratory conditions.

  • Provides husbandry and management protocols, devices and water systems
  • Shows strength and weakness of breeding
  • Explores potential scientific applications and experimental protocols. with regards to the most used freshwater fish used for scientific purposes

About the Authors

Livia D’Angelo is veterinarian by background, she is researcher at University of Naples. Her research activities are mainly focused on the neurobiology of two freshwater fish, zebrafish and the turquoise killifish. She is also deeply involved in the laboratory animal sciences field, with respect to husbandry and management of aquatic research organisms.

Paolo de Girolamo is a veterinarian by background, he is full Professor at University of Naples, and he is in charge of Chief of Veterinary Officer and Ethical Animal Care and Use Committee. His research interests have been since long addressed to the neurobiology and gut-brain axis interplay in teleostean fish (goldfish, zebrafish, turquoise killifish etc.).
