96 well microplate for easy alignment of zebrafish ZF Plate
Date:February 24 2016Web Page No:80394

※ Learn more about Gemma Micro ZF, a feed that supports all life stages of zebrafish (scientific name: Danio rerio).
Features
- Zebrafish can be easily aligned by putting into each well and centrifuging them.
- Alignment rate* is more than 70%.
- Glass bottom plate with excellent optical properties enables more efficient and quantitative chemical-screening using zebrafish.
- Fluorescence and bright-field imaging are supported.
- Zebrafish quantitative image phenotype analysis is possible by using a high-content imaging system.
- By aligning zebrafish, it is possible to obtain analysis results with high S/N ratio.
- The thin bottom glass allows for clearer confocal microscopy.
* The alignment ratio means "Percentage of animals in a horizontal row that can be photographed from the side of the body."
※ This plate is disposable.
※ Non–Autoclavable.

Example Protocol
Sample
- Anesthetized zebrafish (young fish, approx. 3–6 dpf )
Materials needed but not supplied
- Microplate centrifuge (with flash function)
- Micropipette (100–200 μL and 1 mL)
- Pipet tip (wide mouth and low adsorption type recommended)
Protocol
- Pipette a zebrafish with anesthetic solution (approx. 75 μL) and gently place into a well.
- Quick spin down microplate with centrifuge (200-250G).
- Scan with a compatible imaging device (see below).
- After scanning, add additional anesthetic solution and remove zebrafish with micropipette for further experiments.
