Cardiology

Zebrafish is widely known for its heart regenerative properties.Precise measurement of zebrafish cardiac behavioral endpoints is part of the process towards progress in the understanding of cardiac diseases. Zebrafish can regrow up to 20% of its genes. Using larvae and embryos to test toxicity of substances  is common in toxicology and most drug-induced cardiotoxicity research.

The current evaluation of zebrafish cardiovascular behavioral functions is most of the time limited to manual counting making it a tedious task. Briefly,select the zone of the heart you wish to focus on and check the changes in heart rate within your experiment with our cardiovascular screening system to get precise data on zebrafish heart beat, blood flow and cardiac performance.

Cardiovascular parameters are important to many studies, particularly when studying the effects of coumpounds or drug targets in pre-clinical phase. Having access to cardiovascular data enriches your dataset. 

Zebrafish models are often used for high throughput screening, therefore data quantity greatly increased. When testing compounds as drug targets they often do not reach the pre-clinical stage due to cardiovascular effects. Detailed data on the cardiovascular system are extremely valuable prior to later stage mammalian studies.
