Equipment
System for monitoring fish movement, cardiological and morphological measurements
The system enables the monitoring of the movement of several fish larvae simultaneously within one experiment under controlled conditions, as well as the monitoring of the movement of adult fish. The system has built-in lighting and a touch device, which enable the monitoring of the response to stimuli (light/sound) of the exposed embryos. The measurement system enables the measurement of blood flow, as well as cardiological and morphological measurements. The system enables simultaneous monitoring of the movement of up to 96 embryos within the same experiment with a high-quality and sensitive camera (at least HD 1280 x 1024 pixels, 30fps) and lenses. The temperature deviation in the control unit must not exceed 0.5˚C. The system is capable of determining the effects of the tested chemicals on the circulatory system and the heart even with high-resolution images (over 60 fps) and measuring morphological parameters on the same specimen.
